And don't forget Delroy Lindo's speech "The people that made up them rules don't have to live in this cider house. They don't gotta live by them rules. We gone tear down them rules and make our own rules." It doesn't get more liberal than that, in my mind.

? Are you crazy? Seems to me that I remember a people who got sick and tired of living under some rules that were made an ocean away by people who didn't have to live under those rules themselves. See: American Revolution

Seems to me that I remember an important part of the Contract of America that said that the rule makers could not exempt themselves from the rules, as they had done before. Read: FIRST, require all laws that apply to the rest of the country also apply equally to the Congress;

I fail to see the liberalism here at all.
