Twister

"Better get under cover, Sylvester. There's a storm blowin' up, a whopper. Just speakin' the vernacular of the peasantry. Poor little kid, I hope she gets home all right."
--Professor Marvel (The Wizard of Oz)

This article remains me of the old saying that you can't tell the players without a scorecard. Right is Left. Conservative is Liberal. And vice versa.

Labels that reflect classical liberalism have had a wild ride over the past 100 yrs.

Also suggests the need for carefully defining terms before getting into an idealogical discussion.

If nothing else, the kleptocracy is accommodating. Liberal leftism and radical conservatism are merely different bites of the same shit sandwich.
