I truly believe there is a difference between liberals and progressives; liberals are more firmly rooted to reality than the latter.

I disagree. They are one in the same. And both groups are extremely smug and self-righteous.

I really can’t argue too much over the smugness that so many excrete from their pores, but I still think that their end games are *slightly* different.

More like the difference between Liberals and Leftist.

Liberals also hate big Govt and intrusion into their lives.
The Progressive Leftist wants more Govt control into your life.

Huge conflict in the Dem Party right now for control between the Silent Liberals and the Vocal Leftist.
Leftist are radical and violent.

Differences in individuals are of course valid.

Buy when they vote the same way......

The fact that not all Liberals support the more far left positions becomes kind of a moot point.

Well written piece.
He hates that article because it hits home. Magoo loves to post one of the links mentioned in the article. He loves it so much, he's posted the same link with a smartazz comment dozens of times.

I agree with you. Progressives kinda freak me out.
