Goody for you. You learned to use a search engine. (I guess my schooling you the other day on the correct definition of “classical liberal” taught you a valuable lesson.

So now that you’ve defined the words right, how about using them in some adult context from now on instead of just throwing them around at every candidate not named Ron Paul Ron Paul Ron Paul Ron Paul.

(1) I am quite sure I learned in college (where I majored in political science) that a “classical liberal” or a “reform liberal” or a “libertarian” are ALL liberals.

(2) “Conservatism” is not liberalism. If you are a classical liberal, you are just a liberal having an argument with another type of liberal over which liberal value (liberty or equality) is more important.

(3) I’m not a Ron Paul supporter. I just refuse to vote for someone who calls himself a “conservative,” but who sounds more like Kweisi Mfume or Jesse Jackson.
