    Progressive is another word for ultra left or even socialist. Having the most qualified person doesn't matter. Race, color, sexual orientation and the like are all that matters. That is until they need the help. I've never seen a liberal in a hospital needing bypass surgery asking for the surgeon that was hired because he or she met race or gender requirements. They, like the rest of us want the very best.

      "Progressive is another word for ultra left or even socialist."

      ...as defined by the far right wing.

      Have you never heard of progressive Republicans?:

        Not from the mainstream of the party. Since FDR, the term progressive has been usurped by the left and generally means socialist.

          Progressive is generally applied to the left since FDR, but it is only the far right that insists it is synonymous with socialist.

          The mainstream of the GOP is why the party has trickled down to a pup tent next to a nearly dried-up riverbed.
