Liberals who call themselves Liberal for their own reasons. |

What, exactly, is a Liberal? Is it open for interpretation? The broadest definition is someone with an open mind. But what would you say if there is a species of Liberal out there who is interpreting this to mean that a Liberal is someone who is open to listen to everyone's opinions even the opinions of self-interested conservatives? And that these Liberals believe they're showing their tolerance when they compromise with these self-interested parties who are only capable of thinking in the short-term? And who are not hindered by the laws.
I think you all know these soi disant Liberals exist, and this is at the core of why our country is continually being steered into the rocks. These kind of Liberals make poor leaders when they are motivated by money.
