I looked up the word liberal
 

The right have made it a dirty word so I looked it up

liberal
Function: noun
: a person who is liberal: as a : one who is open-minded or not strict in the observance of orthodox, traditional, or established forms or ways b capitalized : a member or supporter of a liberal political party c : an advocate or adherent of liberalism especially in individual rights

Doesnt look too dirty to me seems like a pretty cool word actually.

Don't waste your time. The people who say "liberal" and "conservative" as if they were bad words aren't interested in logic or facts. Blanket statements are not the sign of an open mind.

Come to think of it, that applies to the blanket statement I just made. Let's say most people who use those words in that manner are not thinking for themselves.

I'm a liberal and a conservative.

Me too, I conservatively apply liberal amounts of butter to my bread.
