Janice must be joking. Today's conservatives are anything but open to new ideas and tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others.
Her unjustified name calling shows all the evidence that contradicts her own statement. Thanks Janice, I too love irony.
War is peace
Equal justice is fascism... 1984's Orwell would have been proud on how conservatives get to redefine the meaning of words.

@ I have news for you. Today's conservatives are yesterday's classic liberals
Today's liberals (who run from the word they originally co-opted to describe themselves by co-opting another word - now calling themselves "progressives") are merely yesterday's Marxist/socialists/commies. The "political correctness" they attempt to enforce on everyone is just fascism by another name.
