    Or a "RINO", or a "useful idiot", or a "Deep Stater"...the list of silly labels goes on. Once the less cognitively gifted among the self-identified forum conservatives get it into their heads that you're a liberal because you had the audacity to express an opinion they either didn't agree with or didn't understand, you might as well abandon any hope of ever having any kind of honest discussion with them. I probably agree with the self-described conservative contingent here at least 75-80% of the time, but because I think Trump is a dangerous idiot, and because gay and transgender folks don't freak me out, and because I will occasionally play Devil's Advocate and ask a tough question that triggers them because they think I'm trying to pick a fight, I am (and will forever be) labeled a "liberal" - or considerably worse. And as uncomfortable as sharing the "liberal" label with certain individuals out in the world as I am, I would probably be even more uncomfortable - and frequently embarrassed - to call myself a "conservative".

    Fox News means nothing to me.

    I tend to think of anyone to the left of me as a liberal. But that would mean just about anyone, so I have to take it back some.

    My only political hero is Patrick Buchanan. I also like Rush Limbaugh, and he is good, but no one compares to Patrick Buchanan and Perianne (we are the same).

    I sense your frustration with this forum. But whatever you are, the point of this thread is to thank you for being here and to try not to take things too seriously. I swear, if all you "liberals" leave, this place won't be worth squat.

    You may be an independent, which I doubt, but you're still a liberal.

    What's the Fox narrative? Who delivers this narrative?

    Thats a statement just pulled out of the air without a shred of fact.

    I am one of the staunchest non liberals here and I never watch Foxnews...I never watch any news except the local weather

    Liberals seem to be perpetually offended by anything someone they disagree with says but they believe they can say whatever they want..

    You should have registered in 2013 the place was liberal and became even more wildly liberal around 2014 or 15....you would have loved it

    Many of those libs never came back after Hillary lost.

    Regarding FOX, the news part of it lurched left after Roger Ailes's sons (leftists) took over.

    Liberals are only content when they control and dominate the conversation.

    You remember the days when conservatives were totally overwhelmed and trolled to death here..
