In general, have most of the good ideas, but are sadly represented on the Internet by whiny, insecure hypocrites (probably high schoolers) who complain (from the anonymosity of their computers) about not being able to criticize the US government or conservatives in general, and then completely SPAZ OUT when anyone DARES criticize their ideas. Free speech is a two-way street mm'kay?
Notice that just about all the definitions that criticize liberals have been deleted or are up for deletion. Granted, some of them were stupid/hateful, but what does that tell you about liberals being "open minded"?
Well the truth is that most liberals in real life are open-minded and cool, but on the web basically act like bizarro-Republicans and aren't actually "liberal" at all, just the political equivalent of poseurs.

Get the liberal mug.In popular usage, a somewhat vague, broad variant of the traditional economic-based ideology, that describes the policies of the Democrats as redefined by Bill Clinton. In broad terms, it is the less progressive, right-leaning version that caters to corporate donors, to replace the funding lost when Reagan decimated the trade unions, the traditional mainstay of campaign finance to the Democrat Party. Roughly, synonymous with "Third Way" ("a position akin to centrism that tries to reconcile right-wing and left-wing politics by advocating a varying synthesis of center-right and centrist economic platforms with some center-left social policies").

Thomas Jefferson once said, "Dissent is the pinnacle of patriotism." To be completely honest, I hold higher regard for Thomas Jefferson than for Dubya and people on Urban Dictionary who claim that protest equals "taking advantage of freedom" and degradation of America.

Liberal A.K.A Antiwar Protester: Dude, why is marijuana illegal? What's wrong with gay marriage? Wasn't wiretapping without a court warrant explicitly prohibited in the Federal International Surveillance Act from the days of the Nixon administration? That's fucked up! Let's go protest and try to change what we disagree with, rather than accepting it like timid sheep!

Get the Liberal A.K.A Antiwar protester mug.Fake liberal is someone who defends the rights of one group of people to discriminate the rights of other groups. One example is modern feminist organizations who defend the rights of Islamists to practice Sharia while ignoring their misogyny & xenophobia.
