"The Communist Party USA views the 2008 elections as a tremendous opportunity to defeat the policies of the right-wing Republicans and to move our country in a new progressive direction.
The record turnout in the Democratic Presidential primary races shows that millions of voters, including millions of new voters, are using this election to bring about real change. We wholeheartedly agree with them."

I will second you with COMMUNIST, besides there are too many who don’t know what it truly means.
The Highly Deluded
“Regressives”. Because there’s nothing ‘progressive’ in that failed political ideology.
Or, “Aggressives”, as in aggressively and violently stomping out free speech.
Based on thier recent behaviour I’d call them, Aggressives.
Howe about;
“Tolerance or we’ll kill you.”
Maybe they could just go with Rote Kapelle ?
Roter Frontkämpferbund.
Superheroes. They all think they have unique superpowers to do battle with racist idiot muggles.
So many problems have already been solved, that they reinvent or resurrect them so they can say they battled and beat bad, evil people, too.
If progressives changed their name again, what new name would they choose?
LOSER!
They have lost over 1,000 seats and now are using violence to get back in power.
Interesting, slightly off according to William Safire:the word liberal was changed - essentially inverted - in the 1920s (source: Safires New Political Dictionary)Liberal was the word for people you and I would agree with before the socialists stole the word from us.They were able to accomplish that for one simple reason: journalism is bad news. Bad news sells. And yet, journalism claims to be objective - so their business model depends on making people think that negativity is objectivity. Which is a perfect definition of cynicism. Journalism is cynical toward society, but this does not map to cynicism about government. To the contrary, government only raison dêtre is to ameliorate the shortcomings of society - so naiveté WRT government maps perfectly with cynicism toward government.
And if you want a perfect label for liberalism it would have to convey that disposition. And tyranny comes pretty close.
