I need to just go back to the Food section where I can relate.
Liberalism is not about bombing brown babies, curtailing civil liberties, and torturing people who blow the whistle on them. However, progressive liberalism is about this.

Please go back to the Food section.

All your """Progressives""" are doing is getting us out of a mess someone else started
Our country was under attack. Remember all those Anthrax packages right after 9/11?

Did Libya attack us?

I am very familiar with "liberalism". In fact, I am a liberal, just not a modern day progressive liberal. Your confusion is running rampant.

I bet you voted straight Dem.
You're back tracking again. First you claim liberals support Obama on the war....now it' just that Liberals voted for Obama.

Well you finally got one right. We did vote for Obama. He's turned out to be an even greater dissapointment than I imagined.

Are you happy now?

Progressive liberals are not necessarily liberals. What don't you understand?

Liberalism is practically anarchy, but however progressive liberals will tell you that anarchy is violence while they use the state to wage unjustified wars for 10+ years.

Hey it's neat that you've discovered Libertarianism, and are now on a crusade to take the root word "liberal" back for the misguided progressive liberals. Good for you.
Here on this forum we usually go with the standard meaning for liberal not some word game you want to play with it.

Libertarianism stems from the mutualists, not Randian freaks.

However, you are right. Modern day progressive liberals are warmongering freaks. True liberals are not.

Thanks for proving my point.

Your point? Anybody that has read your posts has no idea where you are coming from. You are not using terms normally associated with catagorizing political ideologies. Nobody but you thinks that "modern day progressive liberals" as they are commonly known, are warmongers. That's laughable. You've developed your own terminology.

This is more progressive liberal lies. I am quite acute on political terminology and history--much more than your average poster.

Modern day progressive liberals love to wage war, violate civil liberties, and torture people who blow the whistle on them. This is a fact. This is what is happening right now under modern day progressive liberal leadership who have "adopted" neocon policies, which is a modern day progressive liberal ideology.

In fact, you people use Bush as your guiding compass.

You're clueless. Obama is not by any standard definition considered a progressive liberal. A progressive liberal would be Bernie Sanders...against the war.....Dennis Kucinich....against the war. Obama and his supporters could be referred to as mainstream Democrats, establishment Democrats, moderate democrats, etc. not progressive Democrats.

Are you by chance a Lyndon Larouche supporter?
