No, of course you aren't trying to demonize liberals Ron, because you ARE one! You are trying to demonize me by demonizing the progressive left with which I stand, because you are afraid we will rock your safe Republicrat world even worse than the Republicans. Which is why you want to talk about me, rather than the idea of Deaniacs uniting with Naderites and kicking your patsy liberal asses all the way down to meet your devil in Georgia.

If the progressive left becomes ascendant over the wimp ass liberals, the way they did in the last Gilded Age, you guys are going to look like the pathetic sellouts you truly are! Everyone will see behind the curtain that the Great and Powerful OZ ain't so great! That not only is the emperor naked, but he is meaner than a hungry goat and buck ugly besides!

Now Ron, I know you are trying to upset me by telling me I'm a liberal. But that doggie don't hunt round here.

And as to your definition of "progressive" I think it's back to high school American history class for you.
