You're goddamned right I'm a radical
I believe in the radical notion that every American should have a right to health care.

I hold the radical belief that it's criminal that we have billionaires living it up in luxury while millions of our citizens are struggling just to get by.

I believe in the radical notion that we shouldn't be using our military to enforce our will upon the rest of the world, nor should we use our military to take resources from other nations.

Yes, Glen Beck and all you lurking freepers, I'm a fucking RADICAL.

1. I'm a radical too
I also hold the radical belief that if we don't have clean air to breathe, it don't amount to a piss hole in the snow if women are having abortions.

2. If it wasn't for liberal radicals we would never have broke from the King.

3. HELL No. You're not. NEOCONS are the radicals.
Privatize-first fascists are the radicals.

Anti-society gimme-gimme mob-inciters are the radicals.

Don't "own" the R-word as some type of hipster identity.

"Radical" is a loaded gun. THEY loaded it -- whatever its etymologic reality was.

What Would Lakoff Do?

THEY loaded it. Let THEM put that word in their mouth & pull the trigger.
