Well, unless you're saying that all of these "Liberals" are members of the Liberal Party of New York, then I suppose you will have to explain the distinction.

Still waiting for an answer.

Still waiting.

I'm furiously working on it cause, Lord knows, I got to be at the top of my game with Chicago Joe.

While you're waiting, here's a preview:

A liberal is someone who is open to alternative views, who is keen on individual rights and freedoms, and strict limitations on the power of The State.

A Liberal is an asshole, much like yourself, who subscribes to insipid notions of social and political revolution as long as they don't rock his boat. Liberals tend to lose themselves in a never-ending loop of moral relativism, not because they have embraced unknowable reality but because it's just seems so right that you should walk a mile in another man's moccasins.

Liberals consider it a badge of honor to trash tradition just for the sake of trashing, and to trash their country because they really want to be Europeans.

Liberals want to take money from the rich because they are part of a very large group of people who prefer to sit on their asses, and never strive or compete due to terrible self-inadequacies, or sheer sloth.

Liberals are people who live to feel superior to others: In intelligence, compassion, enlightenment, oneness with Gaia, etc.

Liberals are those who presume they are brothers to the black man because know who Angela Davis is, and they want to vote for Obama.

Liberals are those who think that they are "supporting the troops" by casting them as feckless victims in need of Liberal aide.

Liberals are the whiny fat-boys of our youth who now have some power and are going to get even.

Liberals are those who scream at the injustice of CEO compensation but are OK with the fortunes of the Kennedy Family and Oprah.

Just a preview mind you - I'm working on the full treatise.

Oh, I see. You're saying that when you decide to capitalize a word, then you get to come up with the definition of it too. And we're all supposed to know, somehow, that by capitalizing that word, you've decided to give it an entirely idiosyncratic definition. And I suppose anyone can do this. So if I, for instance, were to capitalize the "d" in "dumbass," I would get to define "Dumbass" any way I want. For example, if I were to define "Dumbass" as "a person of high moral integrity and intellectual ability," that would be like the way that you defined "Liberal" in your own unique way, right?

That's very interesting. Thanks, Finn, you're a real Shithead.

I have not read much of this thread. I assume you mean this Angela Davis.

Angela Yvonne Davis (born, January 26, 1944 in Birmingham, Alabama) is an American socialist organizer and professor who was associated with the Black Panther Party (BPP) and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). Davis was also a prominent member and political candidate of the Communist Party USA. She first achieved nationwide notoriety when she was linked to the murder of Judge Harold Haley during an attempted Black Panther prison break; she fled underground, and was the subject of an intense manhunt. She was eventually captured, arrested, tried, and then acquitted in one of the most famous trials in recent U.S. history. She is currently Professor of History of Consciousness at the University of California and Presidential Chair at the University of California, Santa Cruz. She works for racial and gender equality and for prison abolition, and is a popular public speaker, nationally and internationally. Davis is a founder of the anti-prison grassroots organization Critical Resistance.
