Basschick: I apologize for offending you. I should have put "wacko Hollywood liberal" in quotes, because the original poster used this specific term many times "I am a die hard, left wing, Hollywood Wacko." .... his words.. hence my "quoting him back with his words."

I don't like that term either.... and I don't know why someone would self describe themselves as "wacko."

I typically don't use the vague term "liberal" either because I am philisophically a "classical liberal." In the rest of the world, liberals prefer the markets to run things over the government. If you vote for liberals in Japan, Germany or Australia they will be the ones wanting to privatize the state owned businesses and move their medical system into private hands, not state operated welfare.

Liberal has certainly become a poorly used word in American politics.... same with conservative too, I would add.
