Scare Quotes

I need to start putting "liberal" in scare quotes. That predominantly "liberal" party in this country is anything but Liberal or even about liberty. The term "liberal" means "Tyrant!" today, in this country. Occasionally, the tyrants will change their name as people are on to them. Changing Marxist to Progressive to Liberal, etc. to obfuscate what they are. But they haven't been able to shake "liberal."

And who says we are a 2-Party country? There are "Liberals," Democrats (there ARE a couple of them left, Olde Skool) Republicans, Conservatives, there is one Socialist in Congress. That socialist is in coalition with the "Liberals" and often the Democrats. One or two other bitter-enders of various stripes. We're just set up the way we are because of a separate executive branch and the way the electoral college works.

Oh and REPEAL THE 17th AMENDMENT!
