Loyal Resistance

Proud to be a Liberal. The Republican Party has succeeded in demonizing the word Liberal which actually means: "Not limited to or by established traditional, orthodox or authoritarian attitudes, views or dogmas; free from bigotry, favoring proposals for reform, open to new ideas for progress and tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others; broad-minded" -the American Heritage dictionary-. These are exactly my convictions, so what the hell are they talking about ? :)
