OHHHH, you mean LIBERAL.
Where did all this "progressive" stuff come from?
I hear Beck and O'Reilly using that term all the time.
I believe that liberals changed their name to progressives to hide the fact that they are liberals and to distance themselves from a label they know is toxic.
So why do Beck and O'Reilly and some posters to these threads go along with this?
[I believe that liberals changed their name to progressives to hide the fact that they are liberals and to distance themselves from a label they know is toxic.]
Liberals were progressives before they were liberals (Woodrow Wilson ring a bell). They changed their name to “liberal” when people figured out what progressive meant. Now they want to be progressives again, which yes is the same thing as liberal. I guess to me, the term progressive is just as insulting as liberal.
