For my 200th post I declare I am a liberal,
progressive, humanitarian do-gooder, ready to suffer the
consequences of my declaration.

I have spoken out against the war, against the current administration,
against nuclear weapons, both deliberately nuclear and "depleted".

I have proudly quoted Martin Luther King,Jr., Benjamin Franklin, Helen Caldicott, Ghandi, and Howard Zinn.

I have even donated to DU, ACLU, HRW, and Amnesty International.

If all of this makes me a traitor deserving of a place in Gitmo,

Bring it on.

1. Good for you. We should not be ashamed to call ourselves LIBERAL!
(And a belated welcome to DU.)

3. Be careful, you might end up in Gitmo
I understand Limbaugh's Dittoheads have tee shirts already made up for 'Club Gitmo'. They might invite you down for a stay

7. LOL
We're all in this together tx. Maybe the ONE thing we can agree on and probably the most important in these times.

5.  Come out! Come out, where ever you are!

It is always a Good Thing to step out of the closet and stop being made to feel ashamed of what you are :toast:

I have your bound collection of The Federalist Papers right here. And for every person you can recruit to the Liberal lifestyle, you are entered in to a monthly drawing for a new Prius.

8. I'm his wife and trust me
he's always been a liberal. Wouldn't have married him if he wasn't. ;)

He's been at DU much longer than I have, he's just a man of few words.

6. Say it loud and say it PROUD
I didn't know it back then but I've been a liberal since I voted against Nixon with my first presidential vote.
