Long ago, and far away the libs on the forum, a different one that the libs got me kicked out of forever, cried and moaned about me calling them libs so I just took to calling them progressives but they didn't like that so I just changed to prog. Try that on them and listen to them squeal.
AvJoe: I agree with what you wrote. I'd like to share some information with you that might illustrate why some people really dislike liberals. The term liberal is arbitrary. Let me explain. Politically, liberal means change. The question- change to what? There are many kinds of subversives throughout our society and politics. Some are c*******t or some other form of socialism like Fabianism, N**ism, or anarchism. All of which are oligarchies whereby the few rule over the many. No one of any of these could be elected in America unless he hides his true self. Where they hide is behind- Liberal, because they, too, want change. Change our Republic to a democracy then socialism or something else. Where are we now? Karl Marx wrote that "Democracy is the road to socialism." Do our politicians who call our government a democracy know this??? How many call our government a Republic, for which it stands??? ~ Don't Tread On Me!

Joe, just as long as you adhere to the rules; what's wrong with saying you're a "liberal"? Sometimes I think there can be no meaningful dialogue liberal-to-conservative. Labels don't necessarily mean a 'slur', simply a declaration of fact. As to slurs, democrats have never been slow to fire them: Bill Maher calling Sarah Palin's grandson a r****d. (It WAS a slur.)
willy, if you were serious and called me a liberal i would take it as a slur

Alex, are you a liberal in your politics? If so how could it be a slur? Provided context was clear?

No insult was intended. Welcome aboard.
I know I've had my issues with "mmccarty12", I admit now, after reading he/she as of late, that perhaps I may have misunderstood him/her. I am now a lot clearer as to where he/she stands.
I would like to make a motion to nominate "mmccarty12", as "team assistant captain".....
Do I have a second?
p.s. for you "libs"/ "progs"/ "dims"...... This is an example of reconciliation and compromise (FYI)
Great post "mmccarty12"!!!! (In response to AvJoe)

If you misunderstood mmccarty12, you obviously were partaking of substances your little ones should NEVER know about! :-(
One must be VERY careful when dealing with the mmccarty12, banjojack, CrazyHorse, and YankeeClipper. Research, research, research is their mantra.
You are to be admired for your public reconciliation.
:oops: Belated on catching my mistake last evening at the end of my busybody lecture to you.
Last but not least. My old school background always had "p.s." as "PS". Has there been a change to that?

Sorry, but we are not members of the politically correct. You have only posted twice, and already you are playing the race card. This leaves any post open to calling someone a r****t if you don't agree with them. Trying to get all of us to call this out is what they do on the liberal sites. Unfortunately, this is one of the little tricks the current administration and there little trolls use when they can't win an argument. I believe in free speech. In fact, I am one of the veterans of this country that helped to ensure we can speak freely. Those who don't like it, can go elsewhere.

I believe I saw just what you say. When there is mention of race I take umbrage although I love to have leaners call me a r****t because I don't like Obama. I much prefer to have THEM blow their stack because I get the better of them and try never to go much further than leaner as far as my name calling goes. I have been on these forums for more than 10 years and have had it out with those leaners a lot of times and don't think I ever lost to one of them.

I think we still are not on the same page, you said that some people felt insulted if you called them liberal so I said if you were serious and call "ME" a liberal it would be an insult. I didn't mean you had call me that are we straight now? oh and i've been here a couple of months

Because I am in one of my well known moods, I just have to do this.
You liberal :!: :lol: :roll:
Forgiveness is requested..PLEASE.
During Pres. Roosevelt's regime many economic planners and social planners were hired into his government. Congressional Hearings exposed many planners as C*******ts. They quickly changed their titles to liberal. ~ Don't Tread On Me!
