No, such as saying that the Pledge of Allegiance is unconstitutional.

I already quoted the worst example. Five Republican, BCE appointed judges stopped a legal vote count with this justification that it would "cause irreparable harm to Mr. Bush"

Well no shit. It would keep him from stealing the election.

So while the Felonious Florida Five stopped "irreparable harm to Mr. Bush", they caused irreparable harm to the country in the process. And I have a feeling that at least Kennedy and O'Connor regret doing so.

Actually FORD, they stopped the Florida Supreme Court from rewriting election law from the bench. If I am correct, that was a liberal bunch if I ever saw one.

Pink, what is a "Neo-Liberal"? How does this differ from a traditional liberal or a traditional Democrat?

These responses are interesting as to our own personal interpretation of things on this board...and FORD, I was looking for personal responses, not the Webster's version. Curious how YOU think, scary as that might be...

Neo-Liberals in my opinion, are corporate "liberals" with imperialistic tendencies. Sort of a fascist trying to take liberal beliefs to get sympathy from the real liberals. Neo-Cons and Neo-Liberals are basically the same, except for which side they're trying to pose as.

A traditional Democrat would probably be closer to some one like Dennis Kucinich's beliefs than to those of John Kerry. A belief in as close of a democracy as possible and a belief in protecting personal liberties (which doesn't always go well with democracy) is what I would classify as being a traditional Democrat. Kerry would fit the defintion of a Neo-Liberal since he seemed to be against personal liberties, was taking a large sum of corporate money and saying that he was pro-war the entire time.
