FUCK FOX NEWS!!!

[durcetcurval]

Yes of course. We have just seen how tremendously well the conservative ideas were working ! Obviously what we need Hume darling, is a few more wars and deregulation on the markets. So you can continue to be happy, asshole...

Brit Hume is an idiot!

[Usingabrain]

It's too, bad. If GOP wouldn't have gotten us into a stagnant war, passed bad deregulations, passed progressive bills urging the auto industry to stay with it, or tried to stir up fear and resentment withing their own people about president Obama, let our infrastructure become run down, or, and this is the big one, still won't apologize for the hard road that their errors have put us on, then GOP would be okay.

I have a feeling they so desparately wanted McCain/Palin to win so that they can invite them to this shitfest and start:

"One of us , one of us , gooble gobbles google gobbles"

liberal, socialist, progressive & godless, those are the names the "christian"republicans have tried to pin on the democrats. the worst of course was godless & that got them nowhere.

as long as they fail to be responsible to all the people not just the extreme right, as long as they try to impose their narrow, bigoted, ingnorant religious beliefs on the american people, & as long as these so called "christians" continue to lie on behalf of god, they will do nothing but shrink as a party!

Are there many Brit Hume fans out there? Does this man think anybody values his opinion?

[waltermh111]

i didnt actually think you did, i was just surprised anybody would mod me down for my comment, still, modding doesnt really mean much on youtube unless you get more then 5 down so meh

I wish somebody would summarise the differences of liberal vs progressive though.

Someday somebody will drop the differences into my lap. Not worth reading a whole essay on, just curious

[gamoonbat]

The answer to your question, waltermh111, is No. I was not the one who "rodded" you down.

I gave you my definition of progressive. The same people are often both progressive and liberal, but the terms have different meanings, etymologies, histories, etc....

[waltermh111]

how was i modded down? Did somebody get offended because i thought Reid, Pelosi, and the like have not helped the cause? Sheesh. Liberals need a backbone

I am liberal but when I see that, i wonder what the future of our party is

As far as your answer, I know what progressive and conservative is, I asked what was the difference between progressive and liberal

I want to know if progressive only started being used because of the bad rep repubs gave the word liberal or if it is something else

[dbmcvey]

Isn't Hume retiring so he can drink more or something like that?
