I call them the Regressives since their ideas are old and failed whenever tried.

Progressive is another word for Communist. They are not liberals in the true sense of the word.

Here's an example: plp.org

Exactly Neeka, just had a recent 'discussion';) at another website with a typical Lib & asked her why they evade their original Liberal title. She insisted they're Progressives as in those during the Theodore Roosevelt era. hahaha...if that's not regressive, what is.

Yes, definitely, their socialist beliefs are obsolete. Therefore the term Regressives is far more accurate for them.

Why is it that liberals insist we all call them Progressives? I see nothing what so ever progressive about their policies.

Nothing liberal about them either, except for being liberal with spending other people's money. Liberal means generous or supportive of individual freedom. Support for big government, higher taxes, and more regulation is none of those things.
