Progressivism and Liberalism

Why do warmed over 1960's socialist and liberals attempt to call themselves "progressives" when both historically and ideologically they are not. These 1960's leftovers (that have polluted our youth through education system) have attempted to create a new flavor out of the same old baloney.
Here are the major accomplishments of 1960's liberals:
1.) Massive government run state with central planning. Unsustainable budget deficits that have robbed future generations.
2.) Generational welfare and government dependency by Blacks in America. Democrats must have a constant class of victims to "champion." So liberals keep Blacks down economically so they can pull them out and use them like a worn out stage prop every election cycle and scream "social justice!" Democrats don't want Blacks to experience the liberating effect of the free market. Otherwise they would not support a constant barrage of welfare check and affirmative action programs that place unqualified people in the workplace and teach them to cry "victim."
3.) Loss of Vietnam War. Right after Tet 1968, the United States had delivered a terrible blow to the Viet Cong. At that very moment when the coup de grace could have been played...LBJ and liberals quit fighting. Marxist groups marching in the streets helped to back stab the Republic from within.
4.) The roots of the great lie known as "the war on women" began here. liberals wanted to erase all gender roles because in a Marxist state all are merely "comrades."

You don't actually expect them to be honest and call themselves communists, do you?
 
The modern conservative has to have a good cry at least 5 times a day. There's too much emotion boiling inside them, and it needs an outlet.

You two feel better now? Got it all off your chest? Here's a tissue, blow your nose.
 
I'll call myself whatever I like but I do have a label for you:

The problem is Republicans call themselves conservatives yet they gave of many of the policies you're bitching about right now. I fail to recall all the repealing of big government by Republicans since the 1960's and in fact lots of growth due to the other communist party (Republicans) comes to mind... Deficits and all.

There's no such thing as a 'big government liberal,' that's a myth contrived by the right - the same as other myths such as the 'liberal media' and 'political correctness.'


That's only because "big government" in front of "liberal" is redundant.
 
I'm a liberal who believes in the right sized government
 
Ah, this has degenerated into another flamezone thread.

Tell me more about the shift in the Democratic party between 1900 and 1960 then to 2010. In reasonable terms. Bush was doing an ok job. I am amazed by the evolution of the parties.

Look dunce. Liberalism morphed and changed into what it is today.

True. When W. Bush and Hastert had power they spent like sailors. But, remember , Democrats dominated Congress from 1932-1994. How could they stop Democrats?

Doncha love it when RWs accidentally tell the truth?

Its true - in the past, Repubs were liberal and Dems were conservative.

So, what's the point in talking about the 60s? How about we talk about the present?

And the right size is for you RW is "as long as it overpays me to not do a job that is even needed."

Right sized is determined by We the people

Works out great

In other words, it has no specific meaning.


Just like the term "paying your fair share"...
Libs throw that out there a lot.
Yes we do

And your fair share gets determined by ourconstitutionally elected representatives

That is what drives you guys nuts. You run on trickle down and killing programs the people want and then complain when you lose
