You Be Progressive, I'll Be Sensible

Notice that neat phraseological trick of claiming the attribute of "progressive" to lefty points of view? Using a Venn diagram, I noodled this out, and found out that if I am not a member of the set included in progressive, then I am 'regressive'. Yikes. You can get shunned by the herd if you earn that label!

I am so sick of the word 'progressive' I am going to puke on the next person that uses it on me - and I'm warning you, I am eating my green vegetables these days.

OK Moonbats, I will concede to you on the now tired and anemic 'progressive' stance - you can have it, enjoy, bon chance, don't forget to write, etc.

On the other hand, I am going to claim ownership of the 'sensible' stance. That's right, my position on things is the 'sensible' one. You're 'progressive', I'm 'sensible'.

As I try it out here, I am liking it more and more!

That settles it. You Be Progressive. I'll Be Sensible.
