Then there are a lot of black men that aren't accountable fathers now, are there. . .and I don't see you running out to condemn them, eh?

(PS, I'm black.)

Now that´s the mother of all non sequiturs. The presence of rich people in poor countries (Europe is a different case) means that economic freedom is unimportant? See, that´s exactly why "progressive" idiots shouldn´t run the country. No wonder you think Obama is smart.

Of course I am your enemy. I don´t like the public sector when it neglects its constitutionally mandated tasks in favor of inventing ever new jobs for itself, regulating and sucking the lifeblood out of the private sector. I don´t like "progressives" tearing down social institutions and values, replacing them with identity politics and speech codes as a prelude to inserting themselves into our lives as arbiters of how we must live, and then calling those who oppose it extremists. This has been going on for decades. Obama, with his enemies list, divisive hectoring and primitive class-warfare economics embodies the intellectual decadence that "progressives" already brought about. We are living Tocqueville, Chapter VI. Nobody is talking about Gettysburg – I hear people got killed there – but don´t expect me to shut up and make nice while you enable it.

The reason for the census grab is clear, the reason for "immigration reform" is clear, the reason for bailouts is clear. It's all about future elections, the dems want to make sure that THEY get the vote and by doing all of these things it's a sure deal that illegals are going to forever be voting democrat same way with business' who get the bailouts. As for the census, nothing like knowing who votes what, when and how.

"Your real point is not that Palin is a less than ideal guardian of family values, constitutional originalism or free markets or economic freedom in general."

To your points:

1. She is not an ideal guardian.
2. I believe she is a very strong adherent to Constitutional originalism – I believe it's a living document (as do apparently Glenn Beck and Clarence Thomas with their believe in a Bill of Responsibilities).
3. I believe that she does support the free market system.
4. This means nothing – economic freedom is a buzzword like "intelligent design". It's a wedge. There are outrageously wealthy people in China, Europe, and Africa – none of these places would fit the definition of aving "economic freedom", I imagine.

"As are all progressives …"

Hey, way to generalize.

Forgive me naivete, but no, I didn't think you were – Americans can debate without descending into a neo-Gettysburg.

Am I not your enemy? I´m hardly making more assumptions than you are.

Your real point is not that Palin is a less than ideal guardian of family values, constitutional originalism or free markets or economic freedom in general. You are against all these things. As are all progressives and most variants of fascism and communism.

But you don´t say so. You don´t like to talk about debt, about Obama dictating to businesses and undermining federalism, and all that. You like to point your finger. You evaded the issue of Obama moving control of the census to the White House. You bring up Bush, even though the last census was in 1999. The truth is, these are things you are FOR as long as your side gets to do them.

You are aware of it, are you?

I'd say that he/she/it is still in college and is infinately frustrated that they can't get laid. This leaves such lonely souls nothing better to do than troll blogs and parrot their professors.
