I think Rush’s idea of replacing some of the Liberals in schools, colleges, publishers and libraries (same root as Liberal) with Conservatives has a lot of good potential.

Priuses.

You know, the cars who’s wheels stop spinning and shut down when they ride across slippery surfaces...?

Swear to God that is what happens. I had a liberal I know tell me this, he and his wife were looking for a new vehicle and test drove one. But they live in a hilly snowy area and don’t like a car that just stops working when it hits ice. They would up with an Escape Hybrid.

Poor Liberals will buy Jap cars. Liberals with money will buy anything European. No Liberal will even think about supporting an American auto maker.

liberal, from Latin liber, meaning “free.”
library, from Latin liber, meaning “book.”

The nominative plural of liber (”free”) is liberi.
The nominative plural of liber (”book”) is libri.

etymonline.com doesn’t connect the two words.
