Another thoughtful post from our liberal member who is masquerading as a conservative.
I'm buying, Jeff, next time we drink. Seriously, don't get caricatures confused as facts. "Liberal" is indeed quite a dirty word these days. All the good public policy positions are now assumed to be the "conservative" positions, and all the nastiest ideas are thought to be the "liberal" platform. This is marketing genius and political savvy, but unfortunately it is not the truth.
