Mike, you have it backwards, liberalism by definition promotes change, conservatism by definition promotes status quo, says so right in the dictionary

As far as I'm concerned, Liberalism and Conservatism (in Politics) are just labels. The terms can probably be traced back to British Politics (and the Conservative and Liberal Partys). For Instance, Liberal Democrats have been in power in Japan since the 2nd World War. I wouldn't necessarily consider them exactly progressive - at least now. And the PRI in Mexico, aren't exactly Revolutionary.

You're bass-ackward man! Last time I saw a Sierra club office it was in a building, not a grass hut. The rest is too far fetched to even comment on coherently. You seem to take the traits you dislike from anarchists, Ann Rand, and maybe some extraterrestrial that's been beaming messages to you and string it together into a description that probably couldn't fit a half dozen people in the whole country. You should start a straw man thread where you can fight your imaginary foes. TP
