Id prefer to hear the answer from liberals themselves. I want to see what they say their underlying principles are.

Fair taxes.
Freedom in the market and in the privacy of home.
Limited Government focused on infrastructure and keeping the streets clean for the tourists.
Remember, Thomas Jefferson was a Liberal and Benedict Arnold was a Tory (16 century conservative).

That classical liberalism. Modern Liberalism is more akin to Marxism.

It's amazing to me that people can seriously claim to know what other people believe better than they do.
Oh, the OP.That classical liberalism. Modern Liberalism is more akin to Marxism.

Read the OP again. And maybe again. And I'd recommend reading it again.

Except when people confuse Liberalism in today's sense rather than Liberalism back in the 16th century.
But then again.. Some people have strong views from both and that's understandable.
Liberalism is based on stupidity. It's based on a gut feeling of what one wishes were true or possible, but reality of the world does not agree with.
For example, total equality is impossible. Yet, liberalism, by definition, is the pursuit of equality. How much equality is enough? It's never enough. With each step towards equality, with success, comes the next endeavor of equality. The final result........a society in which every single aspect of life is dictated and controlled by a central authority in the name of "equality". And that can only be achieved with overwhelming force.

So most of the time you are on the wrong side? I see.....I'm a self-described "liberal".
I'm pro-choice, pro-gay marriage, pro-DADT repeal.
I'm in favor of a simple, progressive tax system.
I'm in favor of expanding medicare, and social security.
I'm against all nanny-state, "healthy" laws. I smoke cigarettes, I drink.
I'm anti-prohibition. That applies to all drugs, prostitution, etc.
I'm against special interests controlling congress. I disagree with the Citizens United decision.
On Global Warming, I agree with EVERY SINGLE MAJOR SCIENTIFIC ORGANIZATION, and believe that climate change exists, and we're making it worse.
On most issues, I'll come down on the same side as the ACLU.
On some issues, I'll come down on the same side as the NRA.
On the Political Compass test, I'm in the mid left, far bottom.
