Progressive Consiberals

I am laughing so hard my cheeks and my teeth hurt! This is a classic on so many levels.

  • Liberals change name to Progressive Consiberals.


  • I just went back and read it again and it makes me laugh every darn time.

    On a more serious note, can someone explain to me what Progressive Bloggers and Red Tories are? Does this article have a point? They seem to be liberals but I am not sure. Are they hiding? I'm just a good ol' conservative..

    'Splain it to me Lucy.

    Update: Thanks to Alberta Avenue for getting me up to speed on the terminology. More smart people out there. So, the Progressive Bloggers are in hiding... and actually the Progressive Consiberals!

    First, welcome to the Blogosphere. Second, "Progressive Bloggers" is a misnomer. They are in fact a highly regressive bunch of people who support the old (and dysfunctional) status-quo.

    Progressive means: keeping an open mind about new and different ideas and moving the country forward, rather than back. The "Regressive Bloggers", however, want Canada to remain stuck where it has been for the past twelve years. I don't call this "progressive", do you?

    As for Red Tories, a Red Tory is essentially what I am: conservative and prudent when it comes to fiscal matters and business, etc., but open-minded about certain social policies that may be slightly left-of-centre.
