G.W. Bush's rhetoric about "spreading freedom and democracy" is liberal in the purest meaning of the term. Well... offensive neo-liberal would be the correct terminology, but that's beside the point and does not change the fact that these terms have become warped well past their original meanings. The word liberal means nothing now that its Woodrow Wilson-ish meaning has been lost to history. It has been manipulated so much that now it is just an insulting thing to call eastern democrats.
I'll be down at the Oak Leaf... pass the clove-juice and set up the chess-board.
