The liberals were right!

Don't let the right wing propagandists fool you. On all the important issues of the last decade, the liberals were right, and the right wingers had it wrong.

The highest traditional values of America are liberal values. Equality, democracy, liberty, cultural progress and the diversity of many cultures in one land are all good, liberal ideas. The growth of America has been the liberalization of America. Let's keep America growing by celebrating the liberal ideas that have made America great!

Top Five Reasons to Be a Liberal

Five reasons that being a liberal makes sense

  1. Liberals do it more freely - supporting freedom isn't just a nice thing to do in theory, it allows us all to live more as we would like to live.
  2. Liberals have more edge - the establishment elites are all right wingers these days. Running with the right wing crowd means giving up your mojo.
  3. The liberals were right - we were right about the wars, right about civil liberties, right about global warming. Surely that counts for something.
  4. Anyone can be a liberal - whereas right wingers condemn huge numbers of people as sinners, or "the wrong sort", liberals are willing to accept a diverse range of people - so long as they're willing to accept others too.
  5. Liberals are long-lasting - right wingers have to invent new truths every 12 months or so, because they're planning for the short term and making a mess of every plan they put into place. Liberals value sustainability, and plan for future generations as well as for what's happening right now.

Take the Pledge of Liberty

Replacing the Pledge of Allegiance with a more democratic pledge

Forget the pledge of Allegiance. America can do better. In these dark days, America needs a new pledge, a pledge of liberty: I pledge that I will do what is in my power to ensure that there will be liberty and justice for all.

America's Traditional Liberal Values

America's best moral values have always been liberal values

America's traditional values, dating back to our nation's founding, are respect for liberty, democracy, progress, community, fairness, responsibility, human rights, equality, conservation, diversity, and compassion. The path of American history has been toward the more complete embodiment of these values. Liberals have been on the right side of American history. Now is no time to allow Republicans and right wing Democrats to turn back the clock.

Talk is cheap. Evaluate our values by what we do. Who is working to defend people from torture? Liberals are. Who is working against war? Liberals are. Who is struggling for equal rights? Liberals are. Who is championing more fairness for working Americans? Liberals are. Who is defending the integrity of education? Liberals are. Who is organizing to protect voting rights? Liberals are. Who is rallying around the Bill of Rights? Liberals are. Who is speaking out against wasteful government spending? Liberals are. Who is seeking ways to promote healthy, sustainable communities? Liberals are. Who is working for the restoration of a clean environment? Liberals are. Who is moving America's values forward into the future?

Traditional liberal values are at the heart of what's best about America. The best way to defend America is to support liberal values.
