I like your original post, Ghostoker. You sum up my feelings about the concept of liberalism exactly.

As a liberal, I DO NOT:

-Cheer for the terrorists and smile whenever they kill our troops.
-Support a state in which it is easier to sit back and collect welfare checks as opposed to work.
-Support affirmative action. It's the wrong solution to the right problem.
-Underestimate the importance of a stong military.
-Think child molestors deserve to ever see the light of day again.
-Support outlandish tax rates. We can still have beneficial public programs with a managable tax rate if we are smart about our money.
-Identify myself as a Christian, but I think they should have all the rights (and lack of rights) that followers of all other religions have.

See, liberals can still be sensible, right?
