My Father Always Told Me That When the Other Side Has Nothing On You, They Make Up a Study to Say You're Crazy

Maybe it's because I'm a whiny conservative, but I can't tell if this posting from RI Future is for real or a parody...
Well, this is obvious. Whiny children, claims a new study, tend to grow up conservative while confident, resilient, self-reliant kids mostly grow up to be liberals. It’s clear that Liberalism is a higher state of mind. Liberals want to challenge where society has been and push the further evolution of our society. Conservatives accept the status quo and seek to “conserve” what already exists. I want progress. I’m a liberal.What do you think?
By the way, since liberals apparently want change, I'm looking forward to RI Future's support on replacing the 1930s era Social Security structure with something suitable for the present day, school choice reform, health-savings accounts, and replacing the United Nations with an institution that actually works.

Gee, what a surprise that a "study" laced with negative connotations about conservatives would be produced in Berkley, CA. Jonah Goldberg sums it all up nicely:
