Progressives Strut Their Stuff By A.J. DiCintio

Since you must be wondering what the “Progressives” are all about, let me begin by quoting Mark Twain’s King, whose explanation of this term favored by Hillary Clinton has never been equaled:

“I say Progressive, not because it’s the common term, because it ain’t – Liberal  bein’ the common term – but because Progressive is the right term. Liberal ain’t used in the Northeast and West Coasts no more now – it’s gone out. We say Progressive because it means the thing you’re after more exact. It’s a word that’s  made up from the Latin PRO, front, forward;  and RECTUS, rear, behind. So, you see, a Progressive is a person that looks like he’s talkin’ out the front when he’s (or she’s) really talkin’ out his, er, back end.”
