It wouldn't be my first choice of word for someone I disagree with - LOL!

But it might be interesting to try it ...

I was once called an (expletive deleted) Liberal, because I said Stalin was an (expletive deleted). I think SRS is right (as in correct), 'liberal' is used to describe anyone that you don't agree with.

"Don't people say fluffy liberal when they don't like what someone else is saying?"

I often find people say PC (Political Correctness) gone mad when they don't like something someone is saying or something that is been done (or banned).

Kids with special needs are not weird or odd. They only want what everyone else wants...to be accepted.

I consider myself to be slightly right of centre but to those further left than I am I've been called all sorts of unpleasant names lol.

I guess it just depends on who it is that says it and where on the *scale* they are !!! xx

lol SRS in the matter of years left I hope you're right ;)

my dear friend used to call me a lefty liberal ... but now she says I have moved to the centre LOL I haven't changed my views any , it is just that she has moved from the right ( but I am not telling her that!) :))

You're not old at all Rose :) You've got quite a few years to go yet!

Bears are fluffy, are they liberals? As for those cuddly tigers lol

Don't people say fluffy liberal when they don't like what someone else is saying?

I have just seen that expression used on another site ... the inference being that the membership has changed over the years...still I would be hard put to find very many 'liberals' there ...am I more liberal than I thought or are there just more right-wingers in the 'older generation' ?! ( I am not one of them, older gen' , of course despite being old enough to join lol)
