If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people - their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties - someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad; if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal." - John F. Kennedy

Idiots
I think it is funny/sad that in their effort to out "asshole" the Arizona GOP our own GOP here in Georgia passed an immigration bill (HR87) modeled after the Arizona one giving the police the right to hassle anyone they think might be illegal. Even though it doesn't go into effect until July it is already causing a huge number of migrant farm workers to avoid coming to Georgia to pick vegetables and fruit out of fear of being targeted though most are here legally. The net result is 500 million dollars or more worth of Georgia crops are going to go unpicked and spoil in the fields.
