Charles, you and Justin are using the _word_ "liberal" in different senses. If you want to argue against his liberalism, you have to accept his definition of it.
I myself have some disagreements with Justin's actual positions (independently of whatever word is used to label them), but your attacks are irrelevant because they are on positions named by _your_ sense of the word liberal rather than on Justin's own actual positions.
(Personally, I think Justin is fighting against the English language as it now exists in his use of the word, but if you want to attack his politics you have to attack his politics, not his misuse of a word, and you aren't responding at all to his actual politics.)
