Liberal means to me leftist. It also means hypocrit because I've heard the word tolarance used over and over by them and I've seen nothing but complete intolarance from them. I could list it all but why bother one of them will just post under me with just a smart*** one line response that means nothing.
Tolerating the intolerance of others is not tolerance. (how's that for a one-liner?)
Kirdik.....your preconceived notions & ideas of what a 'liberal' is are not only wrong but, will prevent you from ever seeing any other side to an issue but your own.
I am a liberal & I find that to be very sad for you.
waiting for the bashing to begin...........
Believe it or not but many liberal members of this board have expressed those ideas numerous times.

You may be correct. I really don't know.
I do know that although I am a liberal I always try to listen to 'the other side' & I do not always agree with other liberals.
There are so many variations of conservative/liberal that its really not fair to group individuals together & expect them to all act & believe in the same things.

The Definition does mean center or left of center politically; however, again you are probably using leftist to mean communist. Based on your previous post that is my assumption. I am certain that a few liberals in the U.S. are communist. You can be a liberal and be a communist in the U.S., but just because you are liberal does not make you a communist.
If you live in Russia and you are liberal you could be pro capitalist, A conservative would mean you are a die hard communist...or resisting change.
Disagreeing with someone does not make a person intolerant.

Really? I think hypocrisy is something that ALL humans have the potential of being guilty of no matter what their political party.
Read through some of the threads & you will see intolerance from both sides.
Liberal=take from the working and give to the lazy
Seriously-A Liberal is someone who believes that money should be distributed more evenly and government should be more involved in terms of taking care of people that are less fortunate-I guess that is my definition-I'll have to think about this....
It's all about me me me and you must pay for me me me.
What are you talking about? You're describing the average republican. Republicans want all the services government provides but without having to pay for them. Liberals want government services that effectively promote the general Welfare and are willing to pay for them.
Ha, ha, ha! In what way, floridabob? To me, "liberals" are in darkness. How can people in darkness be "enlightened".
You all embrace what has been shown by history to not work. You have reverted back to dark times in history, believing in a socialist system.
What could be more enlightening than these words: "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness —"
There is nothing higher than that. Why do you say you are "enlightened"?
Because you reject God? The Bible tells us that "light has come into the world. That light is Christ". Rejecting Christ is "enlightenment"?
Please explain why returning to darkness is "enlightenment".

I think that is fairly close, but they also believe in greater protection of individual freedoms, especially those in the constitution, which makes them more aligned to libertarians on individual freedoms issues.
