<p><em><strong>You&#8217;ve probably also heard that the way the ranking worked was based on bogus standards, blah, blah, blah.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>However, let&#8217;s say it wasn&#8217;t.  Let&#8217;s give it the benefit of the doubt.  So Obama is the #1 liberal Senator, Joe Biden is #3, fine.  That&#8217;s all well and good.  Now tell me why that should scare me.  What extreme, radical, crazy liberal agenda do they have?  Can you tell me what policy he has pushed through as a Senator that should worry me?  One point of view that I don&#8217;t agree with?  Because frankly, so far the only things I don&#8217;t agree with him on are when he votes with George Bush, such as on FISA.  Is he a crazy liberal because he voted against the war?  Because if that&#8217;s the case, bring on the crazy liberals!</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>Please, someone tell me why &#8220;liberal&#8221; is a bad word in relation to Barack Obama.</strong></em></p>
