That’s an astute observation, FRiend.
I never use the word “liberal” when “leftist” or “Marxist” would be a more accurate description.
Actually, a lot of what we call “conservatism” today is actually “classical liberalism” — free markets, free speech, rule of law, property rights, and the natural, God-given rights of individuals above all.
The Founding Fathers were classical liberals — and I believe one of the innumerable crimes of the contemporary left has been to besmirch an honorable political tradition.
Yes, it sure is.
