Modern liberalism refuses to leave anyone alone, ever.

The entire party could not sleep at night knowing there was one last grizzly old prospector out in the desert with his mule, living his own life, even if they had enslaved the rest of the world.

America was founded on liberty and the rights of the individual.

If I was a liberal, I wouldn't be able to guarantee that if you decided to invade my space or otherwise harrass me, I would blow your head off.

You're giving rednecks a bad name.

Nevermind. You have enough tragedy in your life with Paddy "The Dumbest" Kennedy representing you. But I thought all you leave-me-aloners were pro-defense and if you love me you should care that I might get blown to bite-sized pieces by followers of the religion of peace.

What kind of a damn friend are you anyways?

It seems to me that the 'Rat party is also a coalition of incompatible groups. E.g.: black supremicists vs. white liberals, homeless advocates who want free housing vs. enviros who want no housing built, apologists for radical Islam vs. radical feminists.

There has been a fight going on in the Republican Party as long as I have been a member, the small gov types vs the Rino's. The RINO's are the co-opt the rat party types and they are loosing and have been since AUH2O. When the small gov types are in the majority the National Party will fall into line.

Funny, I see a breakup of the Dems: the Liberals, the DNC-centrists, the Hard Left going over to the Greens, and at least two ethnic-spoils parties based on black and hispanic Jesse Jackson/Al Sharpton types. . .

I read this far and decided this mental midget knows not of what he speaks:

"If you think it is the proper role of a Jeffersonian state to steal money from citizens to build civic plazas and university labs…you might be a Republican."

(Thomas Jefferson would gag if he read this.)

Oh, I worry about you all the time. That's why I pay so much in taxes, in the vain hope that they will protect you from being blown up. The world would be a darker place without you in it.

I'm just not worried about me.

It's the only option we got.

My vision may be clouded from living in Smuggler's Cove among the Mooncussers for so long, but it looks to me like the small government guys are losing power.

The Conservitive movement has moved a LONG way to acheving dominance since I was 18 and Youth For Goldwater. If you are young and looking foreward, as opposed to me, old and looking backward, it is difficult to see the progress.

"I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism. ... The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom, and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is."- Ronald Reagan

Another lozertarian whackjob...

If I lived in the Communist State of RI, and being a Masshole that is saying something, I would feel the same way.

To put it another way, New England, except NH, are the Warsaw Pact of the 21st Century. When these places have driven have driven their citizens (proles?) into penurity, set up the Republican razor.

You need to turn on your sarcasm detector. Lots of Republicans out there looking to have pet multi-million (or billion) dollar projects paid for by the taxpayers. Contrasing their ideals with Jefferson's was meant to be a slap at them.

Reagan was also a Democrat for many, many years. He finally hit his stride as a Republican though.

Never give up, never surrender, never compromise, this is a God Blessed Nation, we just surrendered to Satan for awhile as a trial. It is slow but we will win!.
