Are you a Classic Liberal or a Social Liberal?

[gilliegrrrl]

Really? And where do you get your information? Who decided on these definitions? You? What is your conclusion based on?
Sources please.

[Think 1st]

I am both, since your definitions are your own, especially the made up second one.

What about the difference between conservatives and neo-cons.
Or more important nowadays, the difference between conservatives and phony conservative Limbo-cons.

Classic Liberal. We had the only President to go back in office more
than 2 terms. We had FDR, Kennedy, and Clinton. And don't
forget that we never had a President resign. Nixon did however............

Whichever one allows me to own a gun.

I'm a fiscal conservative.

Not everyone's a lib.

Almost. A "Classic Liberal" would be someone like Jefferson, for example, these days known as "Originalist" so as not to confuse people by using the word "Liberal," which now means "opposes 100% of Jeffersonian ideas."

You know enough history to realize that Hitler and the whole National Socialist thing was pretty popular before "the war," right? Well, THOSE people needed to distance themselves from Hitler and started calling themselves "liberals" because its connotation at the time was "all-American." Since then, exactly ZERO of their policy positions have shifted from their original fascist/nazi/progressive* stance. Move a 1930s Nazi into 2009 America and you have a "Moderate Democrat." Debating that demands misinformation and/or lying.
