LOW. Beginning with Reagan in the USA the word "liberal" has been amligned to an extreme extent by the right. I have actually heard "Christian" pastors equare Liberal and Satan....
It just does not seem very American to me.
And I what?
You are using words that exist, in the meaning you intend, only in the US. In most societies the word 'liberal' is a word of which people are proud. It stands for freedom, society, responsibility.
You have much in common with Humpty Dumpty and as such are almost entirely incomprehensible.
You will soon see the error of your ways. Your banks, for instance will be nationalised before the end of summer and those that are not will have gone to the wall since in general they are insolvent.
Don't tell me I'm talking rubbish now. Wait until August/September and then tell me .... if you can!
IF the banks are nationalized, it will be because the liberal socialist administration wants them to be, not because conservatives caused them to be. Let's keep in perspective, the reason the banks are in trouble now... It's not because of conservative initiatives of deregulation, it is because of liberals taking advantage of deregulation and passing a bunch of legislation to force banks into giving loans to people who couldn't afford to repay them.
In the US (which is where we are), the word "liberal" is apparently nothing to be proud of. Most liberals here, prefer to be called "progressives" instead. It doesn't stand for freedom, society, or responsibility here, it stands for socialist fascism, gay marriage and abortion on demand. Every policy suggested or proposed by liberals, have at their core, the Karl Marx philosophy of "from each according to ability, to each according to need" (AKA: Robbing from the rich to give to the poor.)
Liberals run screaming from the label "Socialist" but that is the philosophy they espouse. It's almost as if they want to say.... let's be socialists, do socialist things, adopt socialist policies, advocate socialism, and mold our system after a socialist system, but...hey... can't we call it something else?

WooHoo! That Dixie is/was a fine and pointed bit of descriptive prose about our stupidly and undeservedly elitist half of America
Excellent post. Except for your homophobia.

Okay, try to comprehend this... I'll type it extra slowly....
People who oppose your liberal socialist party, are not impartial. Those who are impartial, mostly voted for and support Obama, because they are too profoundly stupid to be partial. These people are incapable of compiling a list of Obama's 100 mistakes in his first 100 days, because they are incompetent.
So the notion that only impartial third-party conveyors of information, can legitimately criticize Obama, is unrealistic and unacceptable. We live in a democratic society, where everyone gets to have a voice, including those you disagree with. Also, the JACKASS is the official symbol of the Liberal Socialist Party!
Clear?
Not a patch on the most ridiculed president you have ever had, heh?
Let me tell you something, lady. Bush so screwed your nation in his eight 'hilarious' years that you became the least trusted, the least respected, the most reviled of all the so-called civilised nations.
Don't give a shit? Neither did bush and that is why you are where you are.
From a non American view point Obama is no where near the world threat that bush was and as such.... NOW READ THIS SLOWLY:
We, the rest of the world, are more likely to buy your products (should you decide to make anything we wanted), more likely to suppport your foreign policies and more likely to spend our currency visiting you as spending tourists.Now, if you can't see that then you need to admit that you really are a dumb, redneck yank. May you harvest all that you sow.
So, what did you think of Obama's pastor of 20 plus years and what he said about the white man?
Frankly, I don't give a shit what you think about my country.

Once again, you wouldn't know socialism if one were giving you the time of your life. As an American you have ZERO experience of socialism. ZERO experience of left of centre politics. ZERO experience of how more civilised nations than yours run their affairs. Find out what socialism means before either misusing the term or condemning it.
Public/Private Partnership = Fascism.
And that fits in with this conversation how?
Frankly, I don't give a shit what you think about my country.
