The Secret Language of Liberals

There is a lot of truth here. Adam Felber sums up a lot of how I feel and he does it using the language that Liberals share that throws most Conservatives for a loop: sarcasm and irony. Conservatives just don't get it. They think we're speaking from the heart, that we fully believe what we say (reserving the right not to believe what you say for themselves). We do believe it but we temper our emotions and passions with sardonic codes that help us vent frustration while speaking what we believe to be fundamentally true.
