9. Good answer!

Every time this subject comes up, which seems to be every few days, the same people repeat the tired, self-congratulatory slur that Progressives simply don't have the courage, unlike those brave, noble souls who call themselves liberals, to own up to what they really are.

Bullshit.

As many of us see it, liberal means genteel, bourgeois left, and Progressive is considerably less genteel and accomodating and more blue-collar. Walter Mondale vs. Howard Zinn is another nice example.
