Liberal Pride

This article entitled, "We Answer to the Name of Liberals", is long overdue.

I personally feel that if you want to have a great, stable society you need a large middle-class belt keeping the fat-cats in check.

Clinton understood that and it is why his policies targeted educating, feeding, housing, and increasing the wages of the ambitious poor. People moved from poverty to the middle-class in droves under his policies.

Sound liberal policy is also based upon sound reliable information, which we call science and president Bush calls opinion and seems to equate with astrology.

My favorite excerpt from the article is this one:

We have consistently and publicly repudiated the ruinous policies of the Bush administration, and our diagnosis, alas, has been vindicated by events. The Bush debacle is a direct consequence of its repudiation of liberal principles.



We Answer to the Name of Liberals

This could be the start of something good. As Bill Clinton said, "Our way works better. It just does."

Mmmmmmmm.

Here is how JFK defined a liberal:

Their health, their housing, their schools.
