are Americans as obsessed with the word liberal as they used to be with the word Communist?

Question

uh duh bush death grip. go look at all the questions on the american site, by the way im british, not american, and it seems to us over here you are,

Answer 1

no, they are obsessed with the word terrorist

Answer 2

Its not all Americans - just the conservatives. I'm a Brit too. I nearly emergrated over there. I went to 'see what it was like' - decided against it - on sanity grounds: namely I'd lose mine if I went there for any period of time with no valid return ticket.

I watched Hannity & Colmes (FOX - fair and balanced??) with that jumped up asshole spitting out the word...llllibRALLL!!!!!!!!! I was horrified to see just how completely biased the media was towards the Bush administration and how through self reflection on itself the media networks had concluded that they were too biased towards the liberals!!! F'ing bonkers!! This is the land of the brainwashed - not the land of the free. And the great problem for the population is that they have no means to access an alternative view - they're lost in the lies.

These neo-con nutcases have nearly crashed their economy, they've spent the social security budget and they caused huge damage to the international reputation of America - and many just don't or can't see it - SCHMUCKS.

Answer 3

interior the U. S., liberal became synonymous with any ideology arguing for a metamorphosis. In different areas of the worldwide, the meaning is extra static - as you're saying, a supporter of unfastened markets and constrained government. We call that a 'classical liberal,' whether I desire we ought to apply the be conscious because it replaced into initially meant and get in touch with the leftists what they are truthfully.

Answer 4

I'm sure some are, but then they've got good reason to be. The communists will never destroy this country. The liberals might. Not that the conservatives are any better. History has proven that the middle way is the best way, every time.

Answer 5

Yes. Liberalism, is the same as Communism. Government take care of the People. Just like we fought Communism, we must do the same concerning their brother's, the Liberals. Don't forget to read the part about LEFT-WING in the description of Communist. Read the definition of Liberalism, please. I don't think America can AFFORD to be Liberal!

Answer 6

Rather unfortunately, most do not know what it means. We are all liberal. Its human nature. By using the term wrongly, it appears to me an attempt to de humanise the gullible.

Answer 7

The reichwing in the US hates "liberals" for the same reason they hate liberty: it comes from the same word, which means "life" and "freedom".

In the US, it was the _liberals_ who fought to end slavery, not the conservatives who owned them.

It was the liberals who wanted to prepare for war against Hitler, not the conservatives who wanted to appease him with non-aggression pacts.

It was the liberals who enacted equal rights legislations in the 1960s, not conservatives who were members of the KKK, shooting water cannons and siccing dogs on schoolchildren.

Answer 8

uhm, 'liberal' is a specific radical ideology within the Democrat Party...

its not an adjective, its a noun. it is not an 'insult' word.. neither is 'communist'...

When we want to talk about a communist leader or communist country, like China... are we not allowed to say 'communist'.. would you rather us say 'tsinummoc' or something? i mean, if we are talking about something that is communist, why cant we say 'communist' ...?

you make no sense.... hence why your a liberal

Answer 9

Terrorist replaced Communist. and Communist replaced Witch.

Answer 10

What is the difference? the commies just renamed themselves liberal because it sounds more warm and fuzzy.

Answer 11

Commies just call themselves Progressives now. It's a joke.
