"Hello, friends, this is Walter Krankheit reporting. Today in RB, scientists made a breath-taking, breakthrough discovery that is sure to take the world by storm. Liberalism, a disease which afflicts millions, has been incurable for many years, and has been a rampant worldwide pandemic claiming millions of new victims every year. Symptoms of the disease are leftist thought, big government-philia, pro-socialism, etc. In spite of the efforts of non-profit organizations such as Liberals Anonymous, no one has ever been able to stem the flow of this deadly disease. Today, however, scientists have discovered the source and the cure. Liberalism is caused by chemical imbalances which prevent logitonin- the enzyme responsible for rational thinking- from reaching the brain, hence causing the symptoms. To solve this problem, scientists have spent hours of painstaking research developing a new pill, called Conservital, which is taken in 50 mg doses, twice a day, and causes immediate relief of symptoms. Conservital is non-habit forming, but treatment is lifelong. Withdrawal symptoms include resurgence of liberalism, possibly even worse than before the treatment. Conservital is not for everyone. Those with liver or kidney problems should consult their physicians before taking this drug. As it has not yet been tested on pregnant women or women who are breastfeeding, the side effects on infants are not known. Conservital is expected to hit all major stores next Friday, and millions are eagerly camping outside the stores so they can purchase the drug immediately upon its arrival. This has been Walter Krankheit of RBNNN, thank you, and good night."

Good job there's no Conservital in Random Kingdom... :P

Counter-Claim:
Conservatism is a disease that affects 9 out of 10 of the world's population. It attacks the dopamine levels of the sufferer, causing depression to get out of control and all tolerance of having a good time to fade into nothing. Also, Conservatism invades the brain, causing the sufferer's long term memory to become sentient and block any new thoughts, causing tradition and the past to become the sufferer's thoughts for the future. Using natural ingredients including the setae of an uncommon gecko, scientists in Random Kingdom have developed a cure for this tragic disease, called Liberol. Liberol comes in two flavours - Normal and Extreme, which not only turns back the changes caused by Conservatism, but improves dopamine levels and capacity for new thought, turning the once sufferer of conservatism into a liberal superhuman. It is, however, a lifetime cure, and withdrawal symptoms include manic depression and loss of memory. Available to all next year, Liberol will be stocked in all major chemists throughout Random Kingdom, as an over-the-counter drug.
