Thread Name: BS: What are liberals made of?
Subject: RE: BS: What are liberals made of?
Liberal equals authoritarian? Huh??? Someoen's been slicing the dictionary and gluing the chunks back crooked. It is obvious to me that there is no definition. The very word Liberal comes from the Latin root for freedom. In fact Fascism is about the opposite of liberal thought. Conservatives who pass acts like the Patriot act which is anti-consittutionalist are now claiming to be pro-consitutional? This is topsy turvy stuff indeed. They want to enforce faith-based agendae via the Federal government and claim they are being constitutionalist? Excyoooose me?
I'd like to know what the hell is really going on here. Why are these terms being twisted around like this?
