Apparently you have never considered the brilliance of David= Nolan's "unfolding" of political space from simply its projection on= the one dimensional `left - `right axis . The scattering of people= around the two dimensional Nolan chart ( "World's Smallest Political= Quiz" , http://www.theadvocates.org/quiz.html ) shows the reality of= an orthogonal `libertarian - `authoritarian axis . From your perspective on the right - the authoritarian right ,= you keep lumping us with the left . What I don't understand is why you continue to be such a= sycophant for the lying Bush socialist war-mongers who have been so= successful at immersing the world in permanent war instead of even= apprehending the master mind of the attack against us two and a half years= ago . You lost money on the lies . When will it get thru to you that= they are dangerous liars who took the Clintons' venial sin to mortal levels ? And stop using current law as a basis of argument . We (= libertarians ) wouldn't have become activists if we believed the laws were= rational . On Sat, 20 Mar 2004 00:35:24 -0000, Ronald J.
