I dont get how you went from Democrat to liberal? Don't you know the Republicans and Democrats are both moderate?
Or for that matter from "not Republican" to liberal... This guy could be a fascist for all you know.
I left out part of the story. He was a liberal...at least by definition.
By definition, a liberal believes in social equality, freedom from tyranny, simple government, etc. Basically, all of the things our founding fathers believed in (they called themselves "liberals", and all of the ideals they used to "create" this country. funny, how when people accuse someone of being "liberal," they are actually accusing them of being patriotic americans. those who are not liberals, are anti-american--by definition (you seem to be keen on definitions...even though you have no clue what they are)
A liberal is pretty far from the description that was hijacked and perverted by conservatives, neo-cons, and all other moronic zealots of the last 50 years. "Tax and send" is pretty freaking far from liberalism.
You sound like a libertarian...which is an entirely different state of lunacy. I will mail you my panted aluminum hat, which I distibute to all other lunatics and ask that they wear them in public. I want to know who you are when I see you on the street. (It's my form of "lumping")
...I didn't know they were hiring 12 year-olds to manage pizza shops. Are there child-labor laws in your state?
