A Prominent Liberal

Andrew Sullivan is peeved by being called a prominent liberal for being in favor of small government, states rights, a balanced budget, supporting the Iraq and Afghan wars, and against the Roe v. Wade decision. That's the current state of conservatives, he says, mockingly.

I know where he is coming from. I support the Iraq war and am considered a Conservative Republican by my California friends, despite being in favor of Roe, believing that the role of government is to extend liberty and opportunity to as many people as possible, and being against the death penalty, as practiced in the United States.

What can I say, people are strange...

  1. I agree. Funny how as soon as you talk about smaller government everybody starts shouting "Republican" at you. They should take a look at Clinton's success shrinking the gov't versus Bush.

    the above comments come from two guys who are quick draws on the "communist" and "socialist" labels.
    i guess you can be labeled "hypocrits" too.
