| Liberal vs. Conservative: Who favors liberty?
In my edit war regarding the "American Liberalism" article on Wikipedia, someone has made the following claim:
"[It is an] incontrovertible fact that liberals favor, [and] conservatives restrict individual liberty."
I contend that this is nonsense. Both liberals and conservatives are enemies of liberty in their own unique way, neither more than the other. Thoughts?
"A republic, if you can keep it."
