Liberal

Rate: 17 Flag

 

 

Today you called me a liberal

Please don't expect I'll deny

Yes, my thoughts are liberal

I live only briefly and then I die

....................................................

While I reside on this planet

I'll be liberal with lots you should know

Liberal with shampoo

Liberal with praise

Liberal with fun in the snow

...................................................

Liberal with my affections

Liberal with my things

Liberal with my charity

From sea to shining sea

..................................................

You try to use liberal as an insult

I must not have the same dictionary as you

It's sad that the beauty of liberal

Is now a partisan trait of the few

I love the look on people's faces when they try to insult you and you accept it as a compliment. They just don't know what to do.
Excellent. And it's not that people denigrating "liberal" just use a diff dictionary...I feel sometims they're not from the same America I am.

Being a liberal is liberating.
This is the most beautiful "liberal" tribute I have ever read. Well done, Amanda, R.
Did I read this once before, here? I think so ... but it's still good!
come on Scarlett... you remember this one ;)
Ironic how an enlightened, generous person could be demonized. Liberal used to be a very positive denoter. Now it is the new word for Commie Pinko. I'll take it with a smile on my face, just as you do. Rated
I like this poem, very succinct and to the point.
i'm not a great fan of liberals. they are people who see injustice, cry out "injustice!" and return to "so you think you can dance.".

better than the people who participate actively in injustice, of course, but if all the people who call themselves 'liberal' were willing to act, america would be a much better place.
