Today, all of a sudden, the word "progressive" has become the conservatives’ all-purpose devil term to describe people they disagree with.

Which radio talk show host targeted that word today?

Glenn Beck has done a lot of shows about Progressives.

    Does it matter? The people who endlessly repeat everything they hear on Fox News or Limbaugh don’t actually think for themselves anyway. Their words mean nothing.

    LOL, it didn’t just happen today. Conservatives have known all along that the word "progressive" is the liberals word for socialism.

    If I were a Democrat I would certainly prefer that to "Marxist" when it comes to derogatory nomenclature.

    I block slanted media garbage out the best I can. If I had to guess I would say Limbaugh.

    I dunno, I’m still happy with "liberal", though.

    Why is it such a pejorative?

    Progressive is just another term for a dirty liberal.

    Study the history of the Progressive movement and then you decide whether those people should be respected.

    I don’t know. When I think progressive I think Woodrow Wilson whom I haven’t studied about in many years. That guy really screwed us. That is basically what I have thought of "progressives" since before some democrat told me who Rush Limbaugh was.

    Beck’s been beating the progressive drum lately. And when I mean lately, I’m talking about several months, not just today.

    Limbaugh’s word was actually Rham Emmanuel’s word ‘retarded’.

    Wrong, Republicans don’t get marching orders like Democrats. We are free thinkers, not socialist elitist’s who are spoon feed ideas via Airhead America.

    Ooops, no more Airhead, at least you guys still have the daily kos and the huffinton post to get your talking points from.
