Laguna, as a card carrying GOP member, your logic frightens me to the bone. That, and it makes less sense than trying to follow Tim Geithner's economy repair methodology!!!
I am sure it does. Freedom is a scary concept for a lot of people. Liberty implies self-sufficiency, which is daunting to those preferring the comfort an omnipotent federal government. Even a lot of Republicans want the government to take care of them. But governmental largess comes at the expense of freedom.
I used to be a devout Republican until Hayley Barbour went sideways on Pat Buchanan, at authentic conservative. I didn't leave the Republican Party, it left me.
