Harry Truman was not a liberal. A moderate, I'll grant you.
He's at least as much of a liberal as you.

See, conservatives are even fighting to bring back an archaic definition of liberal.
As to Truman. I'm not an expert on him. As I recall, he was pretty decent on civil rights, especially considering the times. And, I'd say his foreign policy slanted liberal. In giving it more thought, and considering the times, I'd move him from dead center to center left.

I'm a liberal and I use the definition the rest of the world uses. I have no doubt the liberals of Europe would approve of me in much the way that totalitarian socialists would approve of you.

Another post full of no information. What makes Truman more of a "liberal" than me?

You yourself called him a moderate. That is much closer to being liberal than a totalitarian socialist is.

Totalitarian socialist? Your the one pushing eugenics and taking away the right to vote from people.

The actual use of the bomb on a legitimate target gave respect for its power. It would have happened sooner or later.

I'm for voluntary eugenics. Funny how the meaning changes a lot when you intentionally leave out one word.
As to taking away the right to vote, so what? I'm for small non intrusive government. You are for tyranny of the majority and massive government.
Me = liberal
You = totalitarian socialist
