Old school Democrat. White middle-aged business owner. Pro-marriage equality. No problem with gun control. Progressive attitude. Sarcastic, but not especially cynical.

That's ancient history to anyone else though.

Middle English, from Anglo-French, from Latin liberalis suitable for a freeman, generous, from liber free; perhaps akin to Old English lēodan to grow, Greek eleutheros free

First Known Use: 14th century

So, the origin of the word is related to freedom, would you agree?

MPT = Mordent Posting Trajectory
OPT = Opposing Posting Trajectory
MOB = Moment of Butt-hurt
The typical MPT is a function of self-satisfaction and velocity, usually gaining self-satisfaction in proportion to posting velocity. An OPT (dotted line) capable of matching the MPT altitude with minimal velocity results in the MOB. Following the MOB, the MPT dives while maintaining velocity and, most interestingly, attempts to regain its position on the self-satisfaction axis resulting in a series of remarkable downward loops at a velocity almost proportional to that which preceded MOB.

Network is one of the most highly entertaining posters on the internet:

He believes that the moon is no longer there and that an orbiting satellite--which he has seen--is projecting a hologram of the moon to dupe the masses.

He believes this with the firmest and most devout conviction.

I ADORE Network!

Yeah, I like that little nutsack picker myself.

You know what. I actually agree. And if conservatives-at-large understood the American tradition of legislative compromise, that would probably solve a lot of problems.

TEST

Suggest that you show us all how one could have compromised with Adolph Hitler or Josef Stalin for that matter.

When we encounter those who have no rightful title to our earnings, yet they believe they have that right, and we point our finger and say, oh no you don't, yet they refuse to compromise, what then?

My compromise is that now that you understand i don't want you to take my money, you agree.

My compromise is that I give to my state. And that works out fine.

OK, well, old school Democrat Blue Dogs were fairly conservative. Myself, I see little to no difference between Dems and Reps these days, in values, perhaps, but in growing government, no. I'm sure we'll have many opportunities to discuss this. Welcome aboard.

Here is what happened.

Republicans in the days of Reagan knew principles to live by. But as did Reagan, we wanted to trust Democrats.

However trusting Democrats turned out to be wrong. They stiff armed Reagan so he now gets blamed for large deficits. He was always against that kind of budget. But he tried compromise.

That was bad. It had as much chance of working as a snowball does of lasting on a hot stove.

Bush the son tried compromise. That was wrong. It got him also blamed for high deficits.

So today the game republicans play is to tell voters we want low deficits and wipe them out.

Trouble is, the free loading 47 percent want goods. The love living next to tax free. The have no conscience. Republicans must appeal to those with no conscience.

It is a rough row to hoe. Too many Americans are addicted to the free trough so they want to keep pigging out. Democrats keep feeding them BS and covering them with it trying to treat the public as mushrooms. Romney tried to talk the truth and lost the election. He did not rush about offering free goodies as Obama did and does to this day.

I accused someone of being racist because they hated Obama. Mistake on my part, either that or they are really good at using their hate for liberals to hide their racist intentions.

Is race the only thing you think about when you think of Obama?

Don't feel too bad. I got de-VIPed twice and IP banned because I apparently could have been "leaking" info here or some dumb shit like that. No proof, of course.

Oh, come on. That's what everyone says, liberal or conservative, about any forum from time to time. It ebbs and flows. I think you know that. I've participated at Conservative Underground, Liberal Underground, Neutral Underground, and every "somethingPoliticsforum.com" I've been invited to, and I can say it's cyclical. It was just late last year, when a bunch of liberals flounced and invited me to some site I can't even remember the name of.

You know, I honestly have never known the use of such terms. No doubt they're out there, and the people using them are in the same class of idiots. I won't defend idiots, even liberal idiots.
