Hubert Humphrey was a very liberal Democratic senator in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, before he became vice-president. He explained the purpose of the Second Amendment
“Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of citizens to keep and bear arms … The right of citizens to bear arms is just one guarantee against arbitrary government, one more safeguard, against the tyranny which now appears remote in America but which historically has proven to be always possible.”
– Hubert H. Humphrey, Senator, Vice President
Last week proved that the Second Amendment works.

This is what a “Real Liberal” was. Not these Liberals of today who are nothing more than Commies.
I read the headlines and thought it was going to be about Tom Daschle. 😆 There is no picking a worse between those 2.
Steve! You must use your time machine to send Dingy Harry back to 1791. Either he will return a changed man, or won’t return at all.
With speech like that modern day Progressive would accuse Hubert Humphrey of supporting the mass murder of children. Liberals used to be wary of big government but somewhere over the past 50 years have morphed into a Progressive Borg with no tolerance for those who show any resistance to a growing Borg-like society run by Borg-like big government. Locutus of Borg has now informed us that he has total control over our lives with his pen and a phone. 😉
And Liberals were big on free speech, I remember the UC Berkley hub-bub, but Progressives are not Liberals, they are Communists/Nazis.
“Last week”???? Geeez! I was working and missed it!
Clues, please?
