John:

<I consider myself a true liberal>

Here in Canada (and in the UK where I'm from originally), there are political parties that identify themselves with the name Liberal -- and I've never associated with them!! These labels become meaningless once they get attached to "movements" or parties. The National Socialists were never socialist! Canada's Progressive Conservatives were a contradiction in terms! Most Democrats are very afraid of true democracy! Canada's Liberals are far from liberal, although they talk a good line.

Bobby Dylan parodied it beautifully back in the 60's...

"I'm liberal, to a degree...
I want everyone to be free...
...But if you think I'd let that there Castro move in next door and marry my daughter...
You've gotta be kidding...
I wouldn't do that for all the bombs in Cuba!"

This is from memory from over 30 years ago, so please correct as needed!

Regards,
Howy
