classic liberal

People who steal other words to become more recorgnized. They then accuse modern liberalism of stealing their word.

1. Hi, I'm a classic liberal, but I'll call myself a libertarian even though I know the origins of the word come from anti-capitalists

2. Hello, it's me again, the classic liberal. This time I'm gonna call myself an "anarcho-capitalism", because anarchism is cool and I love capitalism. I'm also oblivious to the fact that anarchism generally rejects capitalism and that "anarcho-capitalism" is actually an oxymoron.

Liberal media

A term that implies that news reporting has a bias towards "left" or politically liberal ideas, but in reality is an illusion created when highly opinionated people inevitably use selective hearing to filter out and pick up on topics they don't like, forgetting the rest.

You can find some on-line conservative newspapers that claim to be "the real news, not the liberal media kind!" as well as some on-line liberal papers that claim to be "the real news, not the conservative-bias kind!"

Liberal Hippy

The liberal hippy has selective senses. Hearing only what they want and seeing only what fits their self-righteousness. The liberal hippy craves drama. In the event it comes upon such a situation it will turn that incident upon itself to appear the victim. The liberal hippy's evidence of self-victimizatioin shall be dispayed in the exaggeration of each situation. Distortion is key to its self-perception. Without such a key ithe liberal hippiy's ego fails and it begins to experience human emotions such as regret and true empathy. "True empathy" isn't to be confused with the constant battle for women and minority rights.

ACLU, Obamunist universal healthcare, Antiwar Movement.

Recently the riots on California college campuses due to higher tuition prices. The liberal hippy claimed "everyone should have the right to education not just the elite". When in fact the cause of tuition prices rising was due to the debt collaborated from a failing economy based on "Liberal Hippy Politics"

liberal bias

A myth invented in conservative think-tanks as part of an all-encompassing effort to co-opt and/or corrupt all of the best ideas of a socially responsible, free country: In this case specifically, the existence of a free and curious media that functions independently from the government (but see also: affirmative action, feminism, social security, constitutional protection, judicial restraint, environmentalism, and social liberalism in general).

"Thank God we have Bill O'Reilly and Fox News to tell us the news as President Bush would have us know it -- before it gets filtered through the liberal bias for that pesky 'truth' the mainstream media is always harping on.
