Is it OK to be liberal again, instead of progressive?

Come out of the closet, liberals. Stop using the fashionable euphemism "progressive" and relaunch the old, tarnished L-word.

    Worth reading!

    Gail Collins in the New York Times, 22 Nov, "Time For Him To Go", where she makes a reasoned argument for Bush and Cheney to resign IMMEDIATELY and hand over charge to Nancy Pelosi, so that the Obama program could start rightaway. (See http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/22/opinion/22collins.html?em)

    Also worth reading: the Readers' Comments on the article (some 500-odd of them, I believe). The overwhelming majority of readers seemed to support Gail Collins' recommendations!! (Unlikely though it is that GW Bush and Gang would take up these recommendations).

    [Check out: http://community.nytimes.com/article/comments/2008/11/22/opinion/22collins.html?s=1&pg=1)

    [In fact, a very sizable number of readers actually want GW Bush and Gang impeached, thrown into prison, and so on - but that kind of action has already been 'taken off the table by Nancy Pelosi].
