I would say that Goldberg terminology is all mixed up. He correctly points out the incongruence of the moniker 'liberal' as it is used and the actual meaning of the classical term. Like most Americans, though, his use of the term 'liberal' in describing Democrats is an incorrectly usage.

The current reality is that most of those that think of themselves as 'liberal' are, in fact, socialists. As socialists, they have a definite agenda and that is why they don't brook with dissent or opposition. Worse still, the masters of the party, as far as I'm concerned, are little better than Maoists in Brooks Brothers suits. The trouble with mushy terms like 'liberal' is that it gives too much cover to foes that need to be flushed into the open.

I would accept: commie, traitor, hate-monger, Bolshevik, pinko, race-baiter, huckster, charlatan, subversive, tyrant's and servants of darkness as suitable descriptive terms for the current crop of ideologues in the Democratic party.

Well said:

If Eric Alterman (who later apologized for the shot at Limbaugh) were the only liberal who forgot how to be liberal, this would merely be amusing. But he’s not. He is part of a new kind of liberal: smart, well educated, articulate … but mostly angry – the kind that is doing far more harm to liberalism in America than Rush Limbaugh could ever do.

Once liberals... were upbeat and enthusiastic – and mainstream. These days they’re more like Eric Alterman and Michael Moore and Al Franken. They’re closed-minded and nasty - and fringe.

I'm dumb and deaf. I really AM deaf. So there, the liberals can't touch me with their siren song... ;-)
