In reply to the discussion: Liberals! [View all]scratcho
(42 posts)26. And what crap might that be??
Maybe when those trying to form unions were bloodied and/or killed? Women's right to vote? Civil rights act? OSHA for worker safety? Environmental laws? Women's right to control their own bodies? 40 hour work week with overtime over 40? Childrens labor laws? That's enough for now. Just checking. Awaiting your reply. Thank you.

I am a liberal. Always have been, always will be. "Progressive" is a weak term to me.
