Maybe I don't know how you define
"conservative".



To him, it's anyone less radical than he is.

After all, he considers himself to be a "moderate".

As for me, I'm a moderate who sees Teddy Roosevelt as a radical liberal...


Ironically, TR was a progressive. Those calling themselves that now,
aren't.

They're using the Soviet terminology where "Progressive Elements" (Soviet
term) were also known as "Freedom Fighters" in Socialist countries and
"Terrorists" elsewhere.

Bader-Meinhoff, et. al.

If the Socialists want to claim the "Progressive" title then you'll know
just what they a Rabid Radical Leftists who will attack our system at
every opportunity. G

OTOH, they might not wish to *actually* perform an illegal act of
violence - they'll stick to political/fiscal/ideological attacks.

Either way, they're Rabid Radicals from 'way out in left field.
