3CHICS has never abandoned their liberal status. For all of those folks who’ve ditched the “LIBERAL” tag in favor of “PROGRESSIVE” Please reconsider reclaiming your LIBERAL status.

Conservative Christians are an interesting group. For all their passion and intensity, I wonder how they characterize Jesus Christ’s political leanings. Judging from the stories in the bible, I think it’s logical to assume Jesus was liberal.
But then again, I’m no theologian, so who knows.
Hi truth. LOL They are an interesting group indeed
Hey Truth!
Nice to see u!
Liberal Groups Planning to Rally on National Mall
By STEVEN GREENHOUSE
Published: September 26, 2010
Hoping to overshadow last month’s large rally led by Glenn Beck that drew many Tea Party advocates and other conservatives, a coalition of liberal groups plan to descend on Washington on Saturday to make the case that they, and not the ascendant right, speak for America’s embattled middle class.
Predicting a crowd of more than 100,000, some 300 liberal groups — including the N.A.A.C.P., the A.F.L.-C.I.O., the National Council of La Raza and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force — are sponsoring a march on Saturday in the hope of transforming the national conversation so it focuses less on the Tea Party. The groups sponsoring the rally, which is called “One Nation Working Together,” say they hope to supplant what they say is the Tea Party’s divisiveness with a message of unity to promote jobs, justice and education.
“The Tea Party has been getting much more media attention than it deserves, and it’s been saying it represents the voice of middle-class America,” said George Gresham, president of 1199 S.E.I.U., a New York health care union local, who says his union has chartered 500 buses to carry 25,000 union members to the rally. “A lot of us feel we have to get a different voice out there speaking for working people, one respecting the diversity of this country, which the Tea Party does not.”
With so many civil rights, labor, religious, student, gay and peace groups sponsoring the march, organizers acknowledge that it was not easy to forge a common platform and message. And sometimes their message has gotten garbled.
