Often while driving I listen to talk satellite radio. I like to tune in to the "progressive" channel to hear the topics they are discussing. Most, if not all of them, are loons or ass hats using the airwaves to promote what they describe as the "progressive" agenda. My question, simply put, is why they don't refer to themselves as liberals any longer ?
What, if any, is the difference between a progessive and a liberal. In my mind they seem to espouse the same philosophies. Veiled or blatant socialism promoted as helping to save the middle class from "the man." The man, in their mind, is anyone who has worked hard enough to earn more money or attain a better station in life and is not sharing the wealth. Hence, their direction is to promote redistribution of wealth through government confiscation in the form of more regulation and higher taxes.
