11. Perhaps a liberal think tank is an oxymoron
Liberals are open minded -- by definition. When they study and report on an issue they don't generally pre-plan their conclusions. So maybe liberal think tanks just call themselves think tanks.

I receive a few conservative electronic news updates (because I'm interested in knowing what they're up to). They unashamedly call what they produce "conservative news", which means news heavily slanted to fit their ideology for pre-planned uses. They're proud of it. I don't ever recall receiving something called "liberal news".
