In the
early eighties, so called conservative republicans like Ronald Reagan
were successful in their attempts to turn the terms liberal and
progressive into ideas worthy of ridicule and condemnation. The
greatest mistake that we on the left made was to let them define our
identity without putting up a fight. True liberalism and
progressiveness derives its core from a belief in the collective good,
a shared win-win outlook, freedom of thought, and a high moral/ethical
standard. We should be proud of these beliefs and celebrate them. This
website will give liberals and progressives a place where they can
share thoughts and ideas with others. If you would like to post a blog,
please contact us. We also welcome comments to the blogs, which are
crucial to making this site truly interactive. We look forward to
hearing from you!
