Those that openly want redistribution of wealth. Those that are ANTI- War no matter what the cause or situation. Those that oppose Religion in any form. Those that want Open Borders.
Those that have the known tactic of SMEAR SMEAR and DESTROY all those that oppose your view point. Those that do whatever it takes- to crush your opponent and silence them. Hmmm. Is President Obama a Progressive???

    If by redistribution of wealth you mean rolling back the tax rates to the Clinton era, then I'm a progressive.

    I don't know many progressives who are anti-war no matter the situation. We just don't like the illegal, pointless wars.

    We're not against all religions, just religious people who try to subvert the constitution and mix government and religion.

    The border issue is a tough one. While I feel for those who cross our borders to find a better life, I understand that secure borders are necessary for the safety of our Country. I agree changes need to be made, but what those changes are, I honestly don't know. I admit I'm on the fence when it comes to the border issue. Not all Progressive Liberals are for open borders...that's a broad sweeping statement to make. In fact, all your statements paint progressives with a broad stroke of the brush.

    I don't get the SMEAR SMEAR and DESTROY part
    We don't try to destroy those that oppose our viewpoints.
    We just offer a counterpoint. If in the process your argument is destroyed, well, that's what debating the issues is all about.

    As to what is destroying this Country, it's divisiveness .

    I don't think that progressives are nearly as dangerous as extreme conservatives that can't get their eyes out of other people's bedrooms, in addition to their other social agendas.

    What happened to other? Over the many years I have watched politics in this country, I have noted mudslinging from both sides of the policitical spectrum.
    Sadly, it is to be expected when one throws themselves into the lime lite of the national and world stage.

    This should not be the case, people should be able to speak their mind, and we the people should be able to have reasonable cause to believe them.

    It takes a joint effort to destroy a country as great as America, that effort has been made by bipartisan, and by greed, and has been enjoying a very long lifespan.

    Before I commented I looked to see what kind of comments were being left by others, and I was appalled at the disrespect that the left has for the right. . .
    If it comes to a war between ourselves again, I wonder how many progressives will refuse to fight for their freedom? A whole lot I am hoping. . .

    Well... I don't think that is a fair description of anyone I've ever talked to. Redistribution isn't communism. I've never met someone saying they're against war at all costs. Most people who don't belong to a religion don't oppose religion, just oppose it being in our government. The SMEAR SMEAR part is definitely more prevalent in the Republican party. So all-in-all I'd say this is an extremely bias and unfair question. Good day.

    Hard to say. But for the last eight years the religious right and "Bush the Stooge" was definitely on a course to destroy America from within and create a theocracy on par with Iran's. All this while waging their modern crusade in Iraq.

    I hear a lot of the same arguments repeated ad-naseum and I believe these slams against "progressives" and "liberals" are losing their shock value. I mean, it's starting to sound like conservatives really just HATE anything outside of their very narrow world perspectives.

    progress- moving forward - and being a PROGRESSIVE are TWO DIFFERENT THINGS. Progressive are thinking with their hearts- which in itself is NOT a bad thing- But they do not think things through to the end- the COST - economic- human life- quality of life- the affects of the world in general.

    thanks for your comments. Yes you are right- maybe I did make to broad of a statement about the smearing. But one sees it quit frequently here on SH.
    And I refer back to the smear campaign against Gov Palin.

    Stop right there- You can Honestly look yourself in the mirror - and say there was no smear campaign against Gov Palin and her family????
    Do you not remember when Obama during the campaign came out to reporters and very pointedly said- family was off limits. Yet on the other side of the ticket they were all over Palin and family. WRONG- totally uncalled for and WRONG.

    I agree J, trying to compare Sarah and Hillary is an exercise in futility. Two opposite ends of the dichotomy, intellectually and experience wise. And in a very WISE move, Hillary took measures to keep her daughter OUT of the lime lite.

    that is true- he is now the POTUS- comes with the territory. But rarely- rarely do you see or hear people going after his family.

    Really? I see people going after his wife daily. Comparing her to a gorilla and other members of the simian family. Talking about how racist and anti american she is; how she can't wear a dress so she may as well wear a tent, etc, etc. And what about the president's mother? I've seen her called a whore, a tramp, a ni**er lover, and any number of derogatives. Although Obama's daughters have been spared so far, how long before people start to attack the girls as they attacked Chelsea Clinton? You must realize that Gov Palin hurt herself more by being herself than anything the other side could have said about her.
