But that's not really relevant to critics of capitalism, who aren't that kind of liberal. She's using "liberal" as an epithet, not as a category of analysis, and it's very tedious. Doug

[via Popbitch] Poor Britney. Enough is enough. Taking pot- shots at this troubled ex-Mousketeer has gone too far.
