Tejek, I think you are misunderstanding me. I am a hard core liberal/progressive. It is a philosophy that goes back to the beginning of time. That's what you keep saying but I'll tell you.....you sound more and more like a winger. Maybe different issues but the same strident voice. Worse.......you seem to have lost who the real enemy is unlike wingers in general. Liberals are a rare breed. Whatever liberals are, and however they come to be, they all believe two things. The validity of reason and the importance of compassion, and are directed in their beliefes and behavior by those two things and will never capitulate to any philosphy that says differently e.g. Greed is good, or forget the poor. Liberals will be a dying breed if they don't get their act together....real soon. >Not really. He has some pretty strong conservative leanings. For an example, he's a strong gun advocate. He is forever encouraging me to buy a gun.<< Are you sure you're a liberal? Just askin'.<< Well, then I take exception to that, but he seems liberal. You need to know your audience. He's just not as conservative as the wingers on FAMD. He grew up in TX and lives in Utah. He claims its too conservative in Utah but then why did he end up there? It wasn't because of a job. After all, I didn't move to AZ or ID when I left CA. Bentway's great but he's not a screaming liberal.
