Pajamas Media points out in, of all places, a review of The Dark Knight, an interesting difference between conservatives and liberals:
Liberals live in a world of “and.” Full security and full civil liberties. Universal health care and the best quality with no waiting. A dynamic economy and full welfare and unemployment benefits. Liberals, in other words, live in that scene in Spider-Man in which Spidey, forced to choose between saving a tram car full of innocent civilians and saving his girlfriend, chooses both. Liberals live in a fantasy.
Conservatives, though, live in a world of tradeoffs, of either/or. For having this relationship with reality, conservatives are caricatured as grumpy, stingy and negative. Surely all it takes is a bump in taxes on the wealthy and everything will be affordable? Where’s the Hope? Where’s the Dream? Yes, we can!
I hadn’t thought of it this way before, but it seems pretty reasoned. Have a look at the whole article (the quote is from page 2).

Starbucks announced at the first of this month that they would be closing 600 underperforming locations in a cost-saving move.
The Huffington Post has the list of the 600, and only two Rochester-area stores appear to be closing — one in Geneseo…
9484 GENESEO 4262 LAKEVILLE RD GENESEO NY
…and one in Greece.
7343 GREECE 2150 RIDGE RD W GREECE NY
Anyone (here in Rochester or anywhere else) losing their favorite store?
