    Nope, I don’t believe so, not from my point of view. (And I am certainly as far from being a liberal as anyone could possibly imagine.)  Furthermore, I do not advocate nor participate in the politicization of things like this.

  • What would make it a "liberal utopia"?

    Perhaps the fact that Handel was German-English. Two of the founding nationalities, together with the Dutch and French, of course, of colonial America. But still, you're right, what has that to do with Liberalism? And if Utopia was ever to come to America, it is still safely over the distant horizon, if indeed, any such thing could ever be part of the real world.
