99% of the campfire are in that 9%. I'm with both those groups, too. Some of the questions could well be answered differently by me depending what time of day it is .

Democracy is not freedom. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch. Freedom comes from the recognition of certain rights which may not be taken, not even by a 99% vote. *Marvin Simkin* L.A. Times (1992)

To anger a conservative, lie to him. To annoy a liberal, tell him the truth.

The vast majority of Americans are libertarians. That's the point of this excercise. The problem is that we're stuck between two political partys that both want absolute control, which is contrary to the very meaning of "liberty". The success of a third party is unrealistic, as history has shown, leaving us with but one choice. We have to take over the Republican Party.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

We have to take over the Republican Party. Agreed, but I think we're going to need more than 9%.

Good point. I trully believe that there are way more of us than we are being led to believe though. Futility is a very effective weapon in the hands of established Politicians.
