I think Ms. Coulter's only big mistake is using "liberal" and "Democrat" as synonymous terms. Sometimes they are, and sometimes they aint.

Well said, there are still places here in NC that Democrats are more conservative than their Republican counterparts. Also there are still some places that Republicans don't even run for office, up in the mountains mainly. It's not because they aren't conservative up there, it's just you don't register as Republican in certain counties

No, I think that the term liberal needs to be redefined as leftist. I don't think that there are many "liberals" in the pure sense of the word in the Democrat party. That's the only problem that I see with Ann's book. I think that there are the "progressive" (socialist/fascist) Democrats and the old fashioned working class Democrats who don't really understand politics. Other than that I think that the book was pretty much right on.

My grandfather was one of those accused of being a communist. He was accused by the Democrats though, not the Republicans. He was a Democrat New Jersey Assemblyman for Camden County who didn't follow party line. His opponent in the primary accused him of being a communist. They must have already been following him because the only evidence that they came up with was that he was seen perusing the headlines on a communist newspaper at a news stand. He not only lost the primary, but they ruined his life. The FBI followed him everywhere, questioned his church members, his neighbors and his fellow employees at RCA where he was the top tool and die maker and held a top security clearance. He was president of the union and made all the parts for the first color tv. He was also a good Christian man, not at all the type to go for communism. The FBI even attended his funeral in 1954.

I tend to agree with you. She also lumps the Liberals and LEFTISTS together. IMO there's a vast distinction. However, it's a matter of semantics.

Someone please define:

a Democrat

a Liberal

a Leftist???
