Dear Guests:
When Bill Buckley was asked to describe the difference between a Democrat and a Republican he replied "if a man was out in the ocean in danger of drowning a Republican would throw a life preserver half way out so that the man would swim halfway in to grab t while the Democrat would throw it twice the distance from the man's position and he would have to sim out twice the distance to retrieve it. When Obama won election in 2008 the liberal media bounced on Bush mercilessly. I e-mailed George Bush and said to him that history would be kinder. I have explained that twice Wall Street Journal guest columnist had mentioned that prior to the Iraq invasion Iraqi republican guards replaced over night syrian guards at their border . WMD may not been found but it doesn;t mean they never were Saddam's removal will prove out to be a sound strategy. In that same vein how ill history treat Fast& Furious, IRS scandal, Benghazi, Iran Agreement, the multitudes of fiats executed by Obama, ObamaCare, Dodd Frank, Obama's handling of the economy etc etc etc? Personal Best Regards: |

The opposite of progressive is Regressive - which means "going backwards". As I am very happy to be a Progressive, I am just going to be referring to you and your backward thinking ilk as Regressives. By the way, Regresssives are not relevant in today's world. Get out of the way of progress or get run over!! |

Progressive= 1. happening or developing gradually or in stages; proceeding step by step. "a progressive decline in popularity" synonyms: continuing, continuous, increasing, growing, developing, ongoing, accelerating, escalating; More gradual, step-by-step, cumulative "progressive deterioration"(of a disease or ailment) increasing in severity or extent. "progressive liver failure" (of taxation or a tax) increasing as a proportion of the sum taxed as that sum increases. "steeply progressive income taxes" 2. (of a group, person, or idea) favoring or implementing social reform or new, liberal ideas. I consider Liberals to be a progressive decline in democracy, ethics and morals. Unlike you, I don't see your progressiveness as a positive thing. Conservative = holding to traditional attitudes and values and cautious about change or innovation, typically in relation to politics or religion. I've looked at several definitions of conservative and have yet to see it associated with being "regressive." (spelled properly, I believe). But, if you are listening to your messiah in D.C. then its either a poor/bad agreement or bill, or a fight or war. One extreme or the other extreme. NO compromise. So, liberals are just spoiled children, requiring their way or no way. Their way or the opposite way. |

You are a lot nicer than me. I would not have been so civil in my response with my limited Spanish. My Spanish vulgarity is somewhat limited.
