Why is the government divided by two arguing parties where their members are forced to choose straight liberal or conservative?
The government is divided by two arguing parties where their members are forced to choose straight liberal or conservative because those are the two ways of living and belief. The two parties are made to choose between the two so that their beliefs and principles are made known by the government and public. This makes choosing the proper people to put into the government system easier for the people based off of the people's needs.
Why was Eisenhower known as a middle-of-the- road republican?
Eisenhower was known as a middle-of-the-road republican because he was a liberal republican. He believed that both liberal and conservative viewpoints were necessary. "Peopel talk about the middle of the road as though it were unacceptable. Actually, all human problems, excepting morals, come into the gray areas. Things are not all black and white. There have to be compromises. The middle of the road is all of the usable surface. The extremes, right and left, are in the gutters." -Dwight D. Eisenhower
Who are the most liberal presidents in history?
The previous answer was completely incorrect and riddled with outright falsehoods. Fascism, as an ideology, is a religion of the state with government control of virtually everything--no, fascism is not a conservative ideology--at all. Where most liberals today tend to confuse this issue, is that fascism also tends to include intense nationalism, which they confuse with the great divide between patriotic conservatives and liberals, who believe that they are citizens of the world, and dismiss patriotic behavior as "jingoistic." Most liberal: Obama Teddy Roosevelt FDR Woodrow Wilson LBJ Carter Neo-Liberal (athoritarian) Clinton With friends like neo-liberals who needs enemies!

Which president was known as a compassionate conservative?
It was President George W. Bush who openly promoted the idea of "compassionate conservatism" as if that would rehabilitate the principles of conservatism and make them more appealing to a "knee jerk" liberal crowd. Conservative, Liberal, Right, Left, Centrist, Progressive, Libertarian, Federalist, Democrat, Republican, what the heck does it all mean any more? In the United States of America, if conservatives are not conserving the Constitution and the rights of individuals then what the heck are they conserving? If liberals aren't taking a liberal view of the Constitution, then what are they taking a liberal view of? So many of the so called conservatives today adhere to a religious and socially suppressed view of the world it's as if they never even read the Constitution at all. The so-called liberals today cling so tightly to Marxist ideals it is their own particular dogma and they remain ever so conservative in their adherence. The Republican party is no more conservative than the Democratic party is in terms of government representation of the self governed. Both seek to expand the powers of government and defend intrusives laws as necessary to promote the general welfare in a complex and maddening world.The only thing complex and maddening about this world are the bureaucracies that complicate our lives to the point of insanity. "Compassionate conservative", what exactly does that mean? What is a neo-conservative? Are there any traditional liberals? Compassionate conservatism cant be implemented with a straight face. How could anyone not bust out laughing after promising to keep tight the reigns on government but will create new and better social programs? How can a Republican not see his own audacity when he defines conservatism as a tax cut? At least the liberals are honest about their desire to tax all things taxable. Republicans want those taxes too, they just think they can fool people into believing it is really painful for them to raise taxes. When Republican Senators and Representatives appear on the news shows that feature talking heads they are presented as the conservative viewpoint but we hear them lecture us about how that Constitution doesn't grant this right or that. To hear a liberal say such a thing is understandable, to hear a self professed conservative say such a thing is to listen to the conservative side of liberalism where what is being conserved is the neighborhood that Richie Cunningham and Fonzie grew up in, preserved down to the bobby socks and pig tails, the Dungarees folded at the cuff and crew cuts for the boys. That's the spirit of the Constitution. Happy days! Compassionate conservatism!!

Is the LA Times liberal or conservative?
Yes and no. Its editorial page has a tendency to lean liberal (it should be noted that this was not always the case), but its reporting is generally objective. Many conservatives like to insist the Times is liberal because of its opinion columnists, but the majority of newspapers separate their opinion pages from the rest of the newspaper-- for example, the Wall Street Journal's opinion pages are quite conservative and Republican, whereas the rest of the paper tends to be fairly objective business reporting. The same is true for the Times: it has some famous liberal commentators (and some famous conservative commentators too) but its reporting is known for being centrist.
