You touch here on something that drives me nuts. Your liberal is really a progressive/socialist. They are the mortal enemy of liberal thought. Thomas Jefferson was a liberal. Friedrich Hayek was a liberal (often called conservative but...). In short socialists have hidden behind the liberal shield for far too long.

I understand that. But if I am to be 'accurate' the point will be missed by many proposed allies. I abhor the lexicon handed to us by the idiots in room b-24 in Langley, but to keep it simple, on this rare occasion, I am referring to their terms.

I am no term. I am a single unique human wherein no 'terms' apply. Just like the rest of you.
