Yeah, I hate the fact that it's Obama who gets called the most liberal. I'd think Bernie Sanders or Dennis Kucinich.

Obama's liberal, but not the most liberal.

Jesus would have been a liberal. He cared about people. That's all that has to be said when people use the term "liberal" as a dirty word.

But who even cares to begin with I mean it makes me so mad that they have made liberal into a swear word or something. I'm serious, when I was younger I thought being a liberal was something really bad because of this crap that they pull.

Liberal means free and they hate freedom and anyone who will fight for freedom, support freedom or stand for freedom!

They are cons. conservatives, convicts, controlling. Con means against. They are against Freedom or against liberals!

Get it? Got it! Good.

They use it because:
a:) They think it's a derogatory term, even thought it's not. The root of the word is "Liberty", as in "Statue Of"
b:) They have nothing else. Period.

And Mke Malloy doesn't even consider Obama a liberal at all..centrist is the best he's said.

However, FINALLY, on his show last night, Mike said, after watching the RNC, he is 100% FOR Obama and will help get him elected in any way he can.

What gets me is that the righties' heads almost exploded when they found out that McCain was going to
be their nominee. Saying, "McCain isn't conservative enough". These hypocrites will go out of their way to pander towards an
extremest right-wing fascist at any cost. What, like Bush/Cheney wasn't 'conservative' enough?!?! Look where that
got us!!! Now they're all scampering to Palin, the quintessential conservative/right-wing tool who shares their crooked agenda.
