“Liberty to do whatever one wants as long as it doesn’t harm anyone else. No, I don’t believe in that kind of liberty. I believe in conservatism...conservatism grounded in the time of the Exodus and the Judges where people are free but there is order.”
Order. I see. Conservatism, in the United States, is built upon adherence to the United States Constitution. That is what it seeks to conserve. One man’s “order” is another man’s “tyranny”.
So Washington was a Libertarian, he was just corrupted by the presidency? Come on now.
Order. I see. Conservatism, in the United States, is built upon adherence to the United States Constitution. That is what it seeks to conserve. One man’s “order” is another man’s “tyranny”.
Yes it is. I'm sure there are some Libertarians that want to have sex in the streets but can't because of "tyrannical" moral laws.
