CAN ONE BE A PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE? In politics, the word liberal is on its way out, replaced by the perky sounding progressive. (The liberals are progressive even at naming things!) The word conservative, yawn, seems here to stay. I was thinking, can one be a progressive conservative, or a conservative progressive? I ask because I like the ideas that surround the notion of progress. Who doesnt want to be innovative, forward thinking, moving forward? But I also like the idea of conservative. Who doesnt value ideals of stability, faithfulness, personal responsibility. Who doesnt value traditions? So what about both/and? Progressive conservatism anyone?
