…doesn’t that make Democrats “The Party of Won’t Take No For an Answer”? Well, two willing men and one unwilling woman voting on having sex is democratic.    The only reason I don’t state that “progressives” are political rapists is it makes them sound more butch than they … Continue reading →

Let’s say that American political groups have reached irreconcilable differences.  How about we just divide America in two?  Everyone freely chooses their new country.  All resources evenly divided on a per capita basis.     The dividing line is Maximal Government versus Maximal Liberty.  Well, Obama can call Maximal Government whatever he’d like.  And Maximal … Continue reading →
