liberal

Liberalism is the belief in a large and powerful centralized government. This does not mean that every liberal is a communist, but it also doesn't mean any thing about "looking after the oppressed" like so many seem to think it is.
As far as modern liberalism goes, they usually support issuses such as abortion, socialized health care, and the anit-war movement.
Many of todays liberals are composed of college age and younger teens who tend to be more ideological(i.e war is bad in all cases.)

liberal

A person who supports no restrictions on somewhat out of the lime light issues (homosexuality, bestiality, criminals, terrorists, communists, dictators, assholes, lawyers, abortion, social responsibility, morals, pedophiles, etc.) yet wants lots of government supervision and restrictions on other issues (gun control, Christianity, war {no war at all}, generally things conservatives support) contradicting their own beliefs. They are not bad people, contradictory to what some people say, but many of the things they support in the hope of bettering society are actually quite damaging. This does not mean they do not improve society either. Conservatives are the opposite of Liberals, and these rules apply to them too, with their extremest beliefs harming and improving society in different ways. It is arguable that a balance of beliefs is the best for society; unfortunately, conservatives and liberals hate each others guts, and rarely if ever discuss topics together or come to a mutual conclusion.
Johnny was a liberal, and he believed that in terms of sexuality and religion, anything was fair game, but he also thought that the federal government should be more powerful than the state governments and that issues such as gun control should closely regulated by the government.

liberal

A person with a rather quixotic outlook on life. Someone who fails to note the plausibility in their thinking and focuses on perfecting an already functioning system. A person who doesn't realize that free healthcare entails raised taxes which would end up amounting to the same thing, if not more, as non-free healthcare. A liberal would preffer to abolish the death penalty entirely on account of its injustice but is for abortion (I too I am for abortion, I'm simply making a point.) The rights of a convicted murderer, rapist, or both seem to be more important than those of a wouldbe innocent child. According to every political spectrum test I have ever taken, I am a liberal. Oh well.
People should drop titles and simply make dicisions based on common sense. I'm liberal on certain issues--Conservative on others. This is not an example, but I was forced to make one.
