How Liberals think........
If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal."JFK Acceptance of the New York Liberal Party nomination (14 September 1960)
What I dont understand is if liberals really care about this stuff then why do their policies not reflect it. For example they care about the welfare of the people, but they dont want to keep criminals in those "crowded" prisons so they let out murderers, rapists, pedophiles, but hey they're gonna put them on a list, that'll keep people safe! I mean if the prisons are too crowded let's fire up the chair and make some room!
