I think it must be sort of relative
My buddies call me a liberal because
1. I oppose the death penalty
2. I am an atheist
3. I do not think gay people should be barred from the same legal union, with all the perks and privileges, as what people used to call “traditional” marriage
4. If women want to get an abortion, I don’t think anybody should stop them.
5. I do not think the Second Amendment grants an unlimited right.
6. I think only individual American citizens should be allowed to make political contributions.
7. I do not think, at the moment, that ANY American pays enough tax.
8.I think animals raised for food should be treated reasonably humanely
9. I do not think that ANY third party payer should be allowed to know the nature of a transaction between a patient and physician, only that it occurred, and how much it cost.
10. I think it was prudent to remove the Confederate flag from the SC statehouse.
11. I think, in general, those “militarized” special police units are over used in routine enforcement.
12. From personal experience, I think the military has, since WWII, been too often overused as an instrument of foreign policy
13. And other stuff too.
So therefore, on this site, all of that makes me a staunch conservative.
