"I'd like to see your list of liberal things that make sense."

I like your list. Although my priorities are different than your own, I agree with all of yours.

To me it is strange that liberals are actually embracing conservative ideals yet get upset at conservatives.

I am for conserving natural resources.

I am for limiting and reducing pollution of all kinds.*

I am for conserving other resources.

I am compassionate and support efforts to help people in poverty and other bad situations free themselves.

There are many more, and I will have to work on the list.

*The need to be free from pollution needs to be balanced using the accounting concept of materiality. An example would be the arsenic standard that Clinton never thought was a good idea until his last month on the job which President Bush determined the potential gains to be immaterial and the cost to be substantial.
