The term progressive was first used as a political association by socialists.Liberals,in an effort to adopt a new public image,discarded the soiled and tainted term “liberal” in favor of a new,shiny,unsoiled moniker in an effort to distance themselves from the old one they had so thoroughly damaged with their immoral and decadent ideals.But in doing so they have shown their true colors as modern socialists working diligently to usher in an era of communism in the U.S.A.
