I am a liberal. Very liberal. A bleeding heart, peacenik, wealth-redistributing, socialist, tree-hugging, long-haired, 2nd Amendment-hating, legalize-it, save the whales, anti-death penalty, baby-killing, socialist. My politics lean so far to the left that all but 4 members of the House and 2 Senators are on my right. The President is so far to my right that he looks like Nixon from here. And (with some notable exceptions) the only posters dumber and more punchable in the political threads than the Tea Party wingnuts, are the liberals. (Myself included, I guess. As I know better, but still open the thread anyway. WTF is wrong with me.)
