I'm a liberal and I agree with the first one, so I don't understand how this highlights a difference between conservative and liberal thinking. How many American liberals do you think would agree with the second statement?

this means
1. youre not really as liberal as you think
2. you havent picked up on the underlying meaning of the first statement
3. you are just in the extreme minority

any or a combition of those things. and id guess 90% of american liberals would agree with the second statement.this is funny stuff

No, dude. You're so off on this. Are you a teenager? Because that's the only thing that might explain this sort of black and white thinking. There's nothing "conservative" about saying that American culture is geared more toward working as hard as possible as long as possible (that's not a good thing), while European culture has more to do with enjoying the time that they're not working (a good thing). You're misinterpreting the statement. By the way - liberal doesn't mean "hate everything about the United States."
