Again, I was referring to contemporary usage of the terms liberal and
conservative. If you looked at the link I gave, you will see that
today the term liberal usually refers to Modern Liberal as described
there.
I cannot think of any modern conservatives who would side with the
Tories. Modern conservatives are more attuned to the original
principles of the Constitution (think Judge Scalia).
That's stunning. You say that Antonin 'torture isn't cruel and unusual
punishment so it's Constitutional' Scalia is a liberal. You say that
Antonin 'we have a Constitution that is fixed by the words as the
Founders understood them back in the late 1700s' Scalia is a liberal.
Amazing.
The odd [re-]definition of liberal from conservative-resources.com, is
doublespeak that would make Frank Luntz smile. The good news is that
liberal isn't a bad word any more. The bad news is that the redefinition
is so blatantly wrong. Liberal = conservative? Was Ben Franklin
conservative? Thomas Jefferson? James Madison? Not hardly.
The Internet contains a vast wealth of information and is also a vast
wasteland. You want Jack Kennedy to be a conservative? You can find
plenty of sites claiming that. You want Barack Obama to be the most
liberal person in the Senate [pre-POTUS]? You can find plenty of site
claiming that too. Both assertions are wrong.
How do you preserve history and direct seekers to facts and rational
discussions instead of getting lost and entangled in a jungle of
disinformation and fantasy? How do we educate our children so that they
have the ability to know the difference and discern truth/fact from fiction?
