I suppose "liberal" became a bad word about the same time "conservative right" became an evil word. You know how the pendulum swings.

I did not necessarily mean that you were inherently bad because you are liberal, just commenting that saying you are a liberal in Austin is like saying you live in Denver and root for the Bronchos today.:o)

Although being liberal in Austin did not help much in the last state election did it? Bush pretty well carried the state away for the GOP.

I feel he might could do the same in a National election with Mrs. Dole in either role of pres. or vp . That would be cool . Mrs. Dole as pres. for 8 years ,,with Bush as VP , then Bush for 8 years following that. Could it happen????

Exactly when did "liberal" become a bad word?

September, 1949.

<<I think it was sometime during the Reagan years. I remember hearing a variation on merely calling somebody a "liberal": "He's a card-carrying member of the American Civil Liberties Union.">>

Yeah right! As in, WAS!!!hahahahahahahahahah

Surprise, surprise; when clinton gets done with it, liberal will stand for all the saps who gave up supporting justice for one and all to the elite guards of the left social agenda. Is anybody in America thinking the current justice system embodies a fair trial for all regardless of social status or bank roll. We are waiting for the truth to come out and the right thing to be done, right?? phfff....

I hope you don't think the current "trial" is not setting the status quo of justice at all levels of society. Gamesmanship, just politics, dirty tricks, money, money, and more money. That's what determines the outcome of court cases in 1999.

Truth and Justice....good by, ha, thanks billy boy. Now seriously, who knows a good plastic surgion. I gotta get me a cute lower lip curl. That's the winning ticket in 99'.

The Irb, et al,

Speaking of the ACLU, the need to enforce traffic laws, the pure and inviolable "Rule of Law", and how wonderful it is when we all just get along - topics which have all been raised here recently - I came across this Rodney King case link today that seems to touch on them all. You might find it interesting:
