What is a Liberal?

[The Dad Fisherman]

Sad, but yeah...thats about it.

like I've said before i still don't know who i'm going to vote for.

part of it is the politicians fault too, Both Sides. Obama, no Brainer Democrat= Not Bush....McCain= Not Bush...but Republican = Bush....so When they both Bring up the fact they aren't Bush they fuel this rationale.

Plus you have the Known vs. the Unknown in the VP candidates...yeah Biden can be a little screwy but people have seen this for years and know this. Palin has also shown she is a little screwy...but people haven't seen this before.

Evil Known is better than Evil Unknown (I still think this is why we were stupid enough to vote Bush in for a 2nd term)

Liberalism has its roots in Transcendental Philosophy and the abolitionist movement of the 19th Century and the founding of the Republican Party - believe it or not, the "Party of Lincoln" was the liberal party at the time.

A conservative is a former liberal who has been the victim of random violence.

A liberal is a former conservative who has been unfairly convicted of the assault.

Liberal to me is someone who thinks the country's gubmint should spend tons of money on welfare programs.

George Bush in my eyes is a liberal- I think this because of the amount of spending that he has done in his terms.

Conservatism on the other hand is about balancing budgets and reigning in out of control spending. Clinton for example left office with a surplus.

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it...
