The Daytona Beach News-Journal: Editorials: "'I think I understand,' I said. 'The founding fathers were liberal in that they changed the form of government under which they were living.'

'A common misperception,' said my caller. 'The Fathers were actually very, very conservative. They were a land-owning, educated minority. Most of the population were illiterate and owned little.'

Confused, I asked if President Bush is a liberal since he had changed an established tax policy to help the more wealthy and spent billions on a war, or was he a conservative because he owned lots of land and is educated.

'Not exactly,' said my caller."
