I found the link strait away and I think there are low IQ's that resinate with both conservatives and liberals. Many times conservatives unfairly get labeled as rasists. Sometimes it is fair however.

Lets use affirmative action as an example where conservatives get labeled as racist.

The liberal point of view that spawned affirmative action preached that the whole education system is culturally biased and that minorities needed an edge to compete with non minorities for certain jobs. Minorities could be selected for advancement with lower aptitude test scores than counterparts that were not considered minorities.

It may be true that the education system is/was culturally biased for a number of different reasons.

Conservative thinking is that instead of lowering the standards to allow minorities to compete the proper thing to do is address the issues that cause the system to be biased in the first place.

Which point of view is better for those minorities in the long run? Its easily the conservative point of view.

To me...the liberal point of view is racist in that it doesn't encourage the minority group to rise up and overcome.

Kinda like declaring one team the winner even though they scored 5 points less than the other team. Or letting your kid beat you in a game of hoops. That doesnt help make them a better player and makes them less able to deal with the emotions of losing.

Bottom line is that the liberal point of view is indeed racist.
