Excerpt: ==== Now, in order to be considered a "liberal," only one thing is required ? a failure to pledge blind loyalty to George W. Bush. The minute one criticizes him is the minute that one becomes a "liberal," regardless of the ground on which the criticism is based. And the more one criticizes him, by definition, the more "liberal" one is. Whether one is a "liberal" -- or, for that matter, a "conservative" -- is now no longer a function of one?s actual political views, but is a function purely of one?s personal loyalty to George Bush. --- Robert McMillin | scareduck () yahoo com Frightening waterfowl since 1963 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
