(52,685 posts)I know a lot of people who might think they're liberal because of their Democratic or Independent leanings, which in some places is still pretty progressive for the places they live in, but there is a difference between good and great. In other words, they know how to stay within "socially acceptable" boundaries. They won't stick their necks out publicly to show support for someone who is being rail-roaded. Those bumper stickers are about as radical as they're going to get.
And, I think it is understandable for minorities to get exasperated with these kind of Liberals, especially when the high profiled ones in conservative areas love the label, but don't walk the line, unless there's some profit in it.
That said, I think it's a good article for thought.
