Are liberals free thinkers and do you agree with your party's stance?
Keep in mind I will check Q&A of all who answer to check for waffleing.

Some liberals. I've got to go with The DNC on this one. This is a good chance to quell Hezbollah for good and bring peace and stability to the Mid-East region, It's not going to be fun battling Isamic fascists but better NOW than later when greater weapons are in their possession. Israel is here to stay, we all better get used to it, especially those in the Middle East. I think Europe needs to wake up during this pivotal point in history.

Not all liberals are Democrats and not all Democrats are liberals. The terms are not interchangeable.
Further, even if you had said "Democrats are bashing Bush on..." the Democrat party is a party of individuals, with individual opinions, beliefs, etc. We do not function as a single collective.
Thus, the official DNC position doesn't necessarily reflect the majority position among our members or even among our candidates or our elected officials. It simply reflects the official position of that one organization within the party.

i'm not effective what you're relating... I extremely have not began to hearken to a conservative say that Obama became not THEIR president, the way such diverse liberals did about Bush. i have not considered any "a million.19.2013 -- Obama's very last Day" bumper stickers on any automobiles. Protesters in the course of the inauguration ceremony were almost nonexistent. i ought to assert the Republicans are almost surely taking the extreme highway, compared to the finest Democratic Bush-basher...

Liberals and dems are pretty much interchangeable. The President could give them a four day work week, a 200 dollar a week raise, let them do whatever makes them feel good and they would still bash him. It's a deep unreasonable hate they have. You can't do anything with people like that. They are harpys, awful, full of poison, always squawking.

As it is either party is going to say what ever is the most medium position so as to not alienate anymore voters than necessary. The Dems need to get it in gear and start calling plays instead of getting stuck in reaction mode over the two big republican issues, gays and abortion. They need to start waking people up to the ideas of paying off the deficit, getting out of iraq and fixing the health care and immigration systems. As long as the idiot in the white house and his cronies can dump stupid pointless issues into the media and distract, the progressive agenda has no chance...besides WHY DID BUSH AND CHENEY REFUSE TO TESTIFY UNDER OATH TO THE 911 COMISSION?

The only thing that matters is to 'bash' President Bush. Why would they let facts get into the way. Liberalism is standing on you head and telling the world that the world is upside down.

Liberal does not equal Democrat. both parties have sold the American people out to line their own pockets. I actually consider myself a Republican in terms of how the government should be run, but nobody even know what that means anymore. Wake up people Republicans and Democrats are gonna keep selling you out from both sides of the isle until we vote all of them out.
Not that we can now that Diebold voting machines are everywhere.

Republicans go with party line blindly more often than Dems.

Yes but, in liberal land words have no meaning. For example you can say "It is the policy of this administration to have regime change in Iraq" Like President Clinton did, as long as you don't actually do it.
