Kentucky lawmakers gave final approval Thursday to a bill stripping the state’s Democratic governor of any role in picking someone to occupy a U.S. Senate seat if a vacancy occurred in the home state of 82-year-old Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell.
The legislation calls for a special election to fill any Senate vacancy from the Bluegrass State. The special election winner would hold the seat for the remainder of the unexpired term.
It’s not a binary scale. There is no “opposite” of conservative. There are moderates to the left of conservatives, liberals to the left of moderates, progressives and social democrats to the left of liberals, and socialists to the left of progressives.
Yes, notice how many of those you yourself say are further left than liberal? That’s the point.
I agree with you, but I think it’s understood what information the graph portrays and it isn’t productive to argue over the labelling semantics.
It’s not “arguing semantics” if the words mean very different things… The false notion that liberals are the opposite of conservatives NEEDS to die. Don’t keep it around over, “arguing semantics”. That’s insanely pathetic.
Again, there is no term that would be a better label there because there is no opposite of “conservative” in the same way that there is no opposite of one-third. Any label you put there is equally bad
You are being nonsensical. My point is there are terms further left than liberal. You agree with that, but then say they’re equidistant from conservative??
Choose one. Not both.
You’re either not understanding what I’m saying or just arguing for the sake of arguing. If you really feel the need to put the last word in feel free but I’m discontinuing this conversation.
I understand what you’re saying but you don’t. You refuse to feel cognitive dissonance. Sad.
