A large part of why this country is so fucked up is because a significant portion of our voting population ceased to mature emotionally after the age of four, and an unwillingness on the part of more reasonable people to appear 'biased' conveys upon these people, and their opinions undeserved respect and gravitas, enough that they have the ability to make life completely and unnecessarily miserable for millions of people, always for reasons that never boil down to anything but spite or greed.

So, yeah, I'm biased. I have nothing but contempt for conservatives. And being biased and uncharitable doesn't make me wrong.

This isn't really about Liberals V conservatives but rather on what means to be a liberal and particularly why do some labels fit liberals.

My response reflects what it means, to me, to be a liberal. If I were to keep to 'acceptable definitions', I would have to lie in my answer.
