BTW that didn't really answer your question as it was more about pragmatism, policies and utilitarian outcomes than it was about core principles. I do have my core principles, it's just that people in general are so dogmatic about principles that there isn't much use talking about them so instead I focus on real world results in which my principles have done extremely well and yours have crashed and burned. If you want to know I'm your typical social progressive with a socio economic conscience.
Whatever produced 9% yearly growth under FDR, beat the Nazi's and made the USA into the definite superpower works for me. As for the founders, I respect their constitution and that's it (don't go on ranting before you've read the taxing and spending clause). There are no parallels aside from the foundations between that time and the present world.
ipbalkenende, can you tell me what your principles are, who stands for them, and what they have in common with what the founders generally believed in 1789?
I'm hearing a lot of "anti" from you, but you're not telling me what you believe in that has/would work so much better.
I already know nobody gives a crap about what libertarians think, and the feeling's mutual!
The Constitution has been a dead letter, by the Civil War, at the latest. People still love to wave that flag, though, and pretend it still means what it used to.
It'll be more interesting how long it will take lolbertarians to figure out nobody gives a crap about their ideals or principles and some people *gasp* actually have different criteria than they do, in fact most people do.
No the general public hates your revolting 'principles' is all. They also dislike idiots. Something you clearly are if you think the public is going to vote for democrats because their competitors are too much like democrats for their taste.
Whatever... The GOP lost because they didnt stand for anything and didnt stay true to there principles. Now that folks are seeing what a Marxist Obama really is I think a big revolt is comming
yeah and you are just like haggard, craig, foley, lindsey graham hahaha
the election demonstrated how the repubs lost moderates, libertarians and most of the country by pandering to rednecks and religious jerks like you hehehe

ipbalkenende, I'm not sure what your point is.
I already know nobody gives a crap about what libertarians think, and the feeling's mutual!
The Constitution has been a dead letter, by the Civil War, at the latest. People still love to wave that flag, though, and pretend it still means what it used to.
