• This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

Liberal:
disposed to preserve existing conditions, institutions, etc., or to restore socialist ones, and to limit personal choice.
UltraLiberal:
Advocating radical change, making destructive changes to
instutions, people and Government. Primarily very far to the left politically.
Strongly backed and assciated to big national and multinational companies. UltraLiberals see the USA as a bunch land, they see the people on that land as throw aways, labor, or obstacles.
Middle of the Road:
favoring, following, or characterized by an intermediate position between two extremes, esp. in politics; moderate.
Conservative:
1. favorable to progress or reform, as in political or religious affairs.
2. (often cap.) noting or pertaining to a political party advocating measures of ethical political reform.
3. of, pertaining to, based on, or advocating conservatism.
4. favorable to or in accord with concepts of maximum individual freedom possible, esp. as guaranteed by law and secured by governmental protection of civil liberties.
5. favoring or permitting freedom of action, esp. with respect to matters of personal belief or expression: a conservative policy toward dissident artists and writers.
6. of or pertaining to representational forms of government rather than aristocracies and monarchies.
7. free from prejudice or bigotry; tolerant: a conservative attitude toward human beings.

Very funny joke, but shouldn't it be in the "Lighter Side" section?

Much like anywhere. At all. Except maybe an opposite day thread or something of that nature.

I'm not sure what dictionary you are using, but I would consider petitioning the FTC to make them stop calling it a dictionary.
 
Yeahhhh...the definitions you provided for liberal and conservative are almost entirely reversed. And I say that not as a liberal, but as someone who simply understands the definitions.

Did you mean to do that? I honestly can't tell.
 
The point was the negative things he said about republicans can be applied to either party, just like all the maxims he used to try to put democrats on a pedestal.

To be honest his thread and this thread shouldn't even be in this section. There's no debate here, just one person trying to bash a political party with his own personal opinions and no references.
 
I am classically liberal.
