Default Re: UPDATE 2 ..More Good News OG Bill .....

Not quite.

Generally speaking:

Liberals do not oppose all military action. For example, most liberals I know supported military action in Afghanistan. Every liberal I know opposed the Iraq war because it was (amongst other things) pre-emptive. Yes, liberals are green, and we do loves us some ACLU.

Liberals are not, by definition, capital-S socialists, but some socialist principles are shared by liberals. We believe that health care is a basic right. We believe in a progressive tax structure. We believe in a living wage. Liberals also believe that the government has a duty to help people who really need it. Liberals are populists who fight for the working class (this last one is what disqulaifies too many Democrats.)

In addition, liberals are:

for balanced budgets
for secular government
for affirmative action.
for significant corporate regulation.
pro-choice.
pro-sex education in public school.
pro-science.
against the death penalty
supportive of full equality for the gay community.
overall social libritarians

...and that's just off the top of my head.

Any other crazy lefties want to add to the list? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
