My biggest pet peevy is that people in America don't actually know what the word liberal means. We use it in the wrong context, thanks FDR. It should mean a moderate libertarian someone who believes in both economic and social freedom with some restraints not what it has come to be in the United States.
The whole liberal-conservative thing is really stupid in my mind. It really strangles political debate in America when you can call everyone from myself to Rin-Chan a "conservative" and everyone from Al to Preston to jfern a "liberal". Unlike in Europe where each of those people would fall into a distinct catagory.
