"But the people who actually hold these classically liberal ideals are no longer called "liberal" or "progressive". They are called "neo-conservatives"."

ROFL

You realize, Nadine, that with age ideas become "conservative" (after the liberals win the field and move on to other issues). Liberals and progressives have to move on- since that is their nature. "Classically" liberal is past liberal, and that becomes todays conservative, since conservative is by nature clinging to the past, while liberals and progressives want change, and thus for them the past is conservative- no matter what it was. You see that, right? And guess what- todays liberalism will probably be tomorrows...conservatism.
