Interesting that you claim you're not a right winger....


It's not a claim, it's a fact. If pressed to declare some sort of
political allegiance, I usually tell people that I'm a social liberal
and fiscal conservative. That's pretty close. Maybe a libertarian?
I'm also a strong constitutionalist however you want to interpret
that. It seems quite unlikely that our founding fathers, who actually
wrote the constitution, quite anticipated the type of government that
we have evolved into.

Frankly though I'd rather talk about boats and boating.


I have yet to see you say anything that would indicate you're other
than way right of center. Libertarian? Like Ron Paul? That's pretty
extreme. What social programs do you like? Do you think we should fix
not end Medicare? How about Social Security?

A strong constitutionalist typically means doing only what the
Constitution says, with no room for interpretation. Sounds like
Scalia, who is neither a social liberal or a fiscal conservative.

Frankly, you seem very interested in putting me and other liberals
down whenever it suits you. You're unable to make a logical argument
for your positions.
