The 'L' Word

I am finding out that Americans tend to think of one specific 'L' word as particularly nasty. What is this 'L' word? Liberal.

That's right, the people that believe changes need to be made and that this country could be better, are ostracized daily. And why? I have no damn clue! Considering i am a liberal, and do believe things need to be different, I cannot answer what the problem is with our way of thinking.

Liberal views think gays should be allowed to marry. The War in Iraq, and the Bush administration in general, is just wrong. The environment and education should take priority over illegal and un-constitutional laws. Now that i look at these few topics, I have to agree. Us liberals are just way off base.

For those of you who consider liberals the 'enemy', I want you to go back to a simpler time. When segregation was legal and women couldn't vote. Or maybe you'd prefer being controlled by a power-hungry king. These things only changed because of liberals at the time.



Until next time... Later!
