I am not using the term “liberal” aimlessly. I am using it in the context of the original article for this thread. The present administration’s fiscal policy is big government liberalism, worse than that of William Jefferson Clinton.
That's a complete bait-and-switch which proves my point.
You spoke of the "liberal use" of military force.
Now you claim that you were discussing liberal spending instead of military force.
Quit weaseling around.
Our use of military force is and has been judicious and considered.
The Bush administration's defense spending, measured as a percentage of GDP, has been quite conservative.
Even if I were to blindly accept your obvious wholesale revision of your original statement, you are still completely wrong.
