So far, better then Thompson.
It's nice that you favor limited government and, who knows, maybe someday when we are not busy slaughtering our enemies, when the world is a safe place, when the lions have lain down peaceably with the lambs or in their graves (whatever!), when babies are not being slaughtered by the millions just for being babies, when Lance and Bruce know they need to live in another country to "marry", to utilize the nether end of the digestive system as though it were an organ of sexuality or enjoy the perks of marriage, when street crime is crushed and when the military is rebuilt to an unchallengeable strength, maybe we can start on lesser issues like reducing gummint in which case, end gummint skeweling first (not just the federal Department of Edjumakashun). Meanwhile, we have not reached the point where blunderbusses, sabers and letters of marque and reprisal can be substituted for High Frontier, death from the sky, nuclear boomer submarines, other real weapons and the restored Pentagon. Our figurative swords are not about to be beaten into plowshares. You may not care for the waging of war against those who have or would attack us but that is one of the very few legitimate excuses for government.
If you don't like that, then exile yourself into libertoonianism and stop hallucinating that you are anything vaguely resembling conservative.
