The term "liberal", in its political application, is a misnomer. If not actually employed as an outright decception....

   For those that brand themselves, or are branded, as "liberals" are anything but. They are actually Authoritarian in their nature. And hold obedience to big government and 'power' as their [perverse] creed. Of true freedom and liberty they have not the slightest comprehension. It can even be rightfully held that they are the true enemies of freedom and liberty. The term that more accurately describes the "liberal" of today is; faithless and ignorant lazy coward. They put their [misguided] trust in the creature rather than the Creator.
