"Don't call me a moderate, I'm a centrist"

Don't you just love semantics!! I don't know the difference between moderate and centrist or Liberal and Progressive.

The funniest thing is that they makeup new terms and definitions every election and expect us stupid little people to not get it.

As Ma ha Rushie say "A tiger is a tiger, a liberal is a liberal." No matter what new words or definitions they decide to this year.

No position is a position, at least on many issues. Abortion for example. I'm sure they take a position on murder, so why not abortion? No position on gay marriage means you want to wait until the judges legalize it. Why wait? They already have in Massachusetts and Vermont -- Hawaii too, and elsewhere, only the people were able to counter the move, unlike in Massachusetts and Vermont.

Isn’t interesting that when the CNN writer (Mark Preston) seems to be about to make his point he changes the topic to “minimum wage?” The issue here is whether or not the common tax payer, being for or against, will have to pay for stem cell experiments, or pay for abortions, or pay for farmers to not grow crops, or pay for derelicts rehabilitation, or pay for illegal immigrants housing, health care, education, food, etc..

So what is the difference between a centrist and a moderate? Nothing… these are politicians who are waiting for the next poll to see what they should say next. They have no convictions, no values, no beliefs, and no morals.

The current congress shames us all. We elected them – so shame on all of us. The buzz now is that the democrats will make gains this year. I don’t think so, but if they do, thank your local centrist politician (or moderate politician).

Sarah Chamberlain Resnick, executive director of Main Street, contends the Club is being dishonest in saying it only targets people it disagrees with on economic matters. In fact, she claims it specifically goes after lawmakers it doesn't consider conservative enough on social issues.

Club for Growth goes after socially conservative candidates because they know they are not only right on social issues but usually right on the rest of the issues as well.

The ORGANIZATION may not take a position on abortion or embryonic stem cell research, but I'd bet a dollar to a donut you won't find many people who have conservative leanings on those issues in the group.

"Centrist" or "Moderate", both remind me of the old "street and trail" motorcycles. They beat walking, but can't do anything worth a dang.

Centrist=Center of the road.

What do you find in the center of the road?

Yellow stripes, and dead skunks!

reducing the deficit, cutting taxes, focusing on education as well as environmentally friendly measures.

Neutral on social issues, obviously.

The latest disagreement was over President Bush's veto of stem cell legislation.

Or not.

What a frickin joke these liberals are.

[Jabba the Nutt]

Actually, I believe Rush has destroyed the term "moderate" as just a cover for the same ol' liberal ....

When the spin is more important than the message, it's a sure sign the message is wrong.

"And Davis said if the GOP wants to maintain control of Congress this year and the White House after 2008, it needs to embrace a big tent philosophy.

"If you want to be a national party, be competitive in all regions, you need to be tolerant," Davis said."

I totally agree with this. The rep party must be big tent, or it will have no tent. National elections will increasingly be won by those who appeal to many, not try to exclude the many.

...the group of over 60 governors, representatives and senators advocates .... environmentally friendly measures.

Oh Goody. You're against peeing in the swimming pool. That'll get ya a lot of votes.
