Food for Thought
If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people - their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties - someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad; if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal."
- John F. Kennedy
Dissent is the highest form of patriotism.
- Thomas Jefferson
We Believe...
- In equal opportunity for all citizens.
- In rewarding, honest, hard work with a living wage and a tax system that is fair.
- In family values that are more than a political slogan.
- In quality education that gives all citizens the opportunity to reach their potential.
- In freedom from government interference in our private lives and personal decisions.
- That individual strengths in our diverse population are a benefit for everyone.
- In separation of Church and State to preserve the freedom to pursue our individual beliefs.
