I get sickened with the generalizations on here..."all liberals" are this or that.....my problem is not with any ideology, but with the man who is President, thus my criticisms are of that person. Condemning groups of people is just horrible.
Secondly, PLEASE NOTE the definition of liberal in the link. It is not aimed at Democrats, progressives, or any of the such. Comments on this thread which is a great thread should keep this in mind.
""The word liberal in this context has nothing to do with today's partisan language, but refers instead to the Latin root, pertaining to liberty. And at the heart of liberty in the Western world has been freedom of speech. From the beginning, people understood that this meant protecting and listening to speech with which you disagreed," Zakaria argued.
That means, he said, not drowning out "the ideas that we find offensive."
To come on this forum and dismiss millions of fellow Americans is, to me the epitome of being totally UN American

This was an INTERESTING election.
As to Trump-HE IS YOUR PRESIDENT. I do choose to remind you that when Obama was elected he was the chosen president of all the people including those who did not vote for him. IF THAT IS NOT SO, THEN I WHO DID NOT VOTE FOR HIM SHOULD NOT OWE HIS TEN TRILLION DOLLAR OVERDRAFT. It is not, it was not the republicans blocking speakers who opposed their view. It was not the Republicans at Harvard smashing school property. It was not the republicans creating a news story of Trumps people beating up on that female reporter? when the video showed she was full of ........ Reminder-It was Hillary clearly caught mishandling government e-mails. If, you have not put it together Hillary's government e-mails were found on a computer shared by DISGRACED Anthony Weiner and Huma Aberdeen. Do a little READING and you will find Huma Aberdeen's family is in Saudi Arabia AND SHE HAS NO SECURITY CLEARANCE. Hillary approved the sale of 20% of the US uranium reserves to RUSSIA. For that deal Hilary pocketed 145 million. You want to complain about Trump talking to Russians.
You object to Trump-that is your right. But, do you really believe Bill Clinton stopped Loretta Lynch on the tarmac to discuss grand kids.
Had Hillary Clinton won the election she would have been immediately impeached for her many criminal acts. Oh, and we have a two term limit on the presidency. From his own words when Bill Clinton was elected we got two for the price of one. Had Hillary won it would have been an illegal third term for the CLINTON GANG.
Trump is certainly not as SLICK A LIAR as the Clinton gang is. Hillary is actually even more of a socialist than Obama.
This past election was capitalism vs socialism. There is nothing wrong with socialism-EXCEPT THAT IT DOESN'T;T WORK. There are so many examples: East Germany compared to West Germany, North Korea compared to South Korea, GREECE. Trump crudely announced that ONLY four countries have paid what they owe: the US, Brittan and two other small countries I do not recall, I don't know your history but I've many times had people owe me money. Depending on how much it can cost you more to collect than makes sense. If, someone owes me money I ask nicely a few times and then I will not only send a collection agency, an atty after them but I will do my best to make it public. As to Brittan, if I recall they only paid after Trump asked them nicely?
As the PROGRESSIVE LIBERALS scream for more socialism the socialist/communist countries Russia/China are moving toward capitalism and more rights for their people.
fREEDOM IS SOMETHING YOU EARN. IT IS NOT SOMETHING YOU EXPECT GOVERNMENT TO GIVE YOU.
LOOK AT ANYTHING YOU RELY ON GOVERNMENT FOR-THE PRICE IS YOUR RIGHT TO CHOOSE.
Do you really claim to have an opened mind?
