I stumbled upon this verse in the Bible:
"The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left."
Ecclesiastes 10:2, NIV
Thus sayeth the Lord. Amen.
Can't get any simpler than that.
End of lesson. Test to follow in November, 2012

Something the Dog Said wrote: Which of course is a complete lie, but what do you expect from conservatives. What Biden actually said was:
Even though fifty-some percent of the American people think that the economy tanked because of the last administration, that’s not relevant,” Biden stressed. “What’s relevant is we’re in charge. And right now we are the ones in charge and it’s gotten better, but it hasn’t gotten good enough.”
He is simply saying the at this point it does matter anymore that the Bush Adminstration destroyed the economy, it is the job of President Obama to fix it.

In the real world, Right Wing and Left Wing came from the seating in the 1789 French National Assembly. Conservatives (nobles) sat on the right and Liberals (revolutionaries) sat on the left.
