I was just called "radical left"

30. Me, too!

I'm with you!

I am a white, once-Christian, cisgendered female. I am liberal. I think I've ducked that descriptor over the years. Yet, unlike me and my distance from the term "liberal," I think that the LGBT community has done themselves a world of good over get the course of my adult life time by embracing their identity. I now firmly believe I have done myself and my identity as a liberal a disservice by dodging the announcement of who I am. Originally, conservatives were disparaging and I paid no attention. It was jerks and bullies acting like jerks and bullies. Let it go. Then they became pushier. People like Rush ginned up their crazy followers. I wanted no part of them. But now I'm so sick of them misrepresenting who and what liberals are and what they want, I don't care whom I face. I'm not running from their crap anymore. I'm a liberal--far left, even--and I'm an American patriot, daughter of a vet and an immigrant. My far left opinion is every bit as solid as their right wing one. Bring it!
