And when I use the term "libertines", I'm referring to the ones who falsely like to refer to themselves as "libertarians".

America's Framers were true libertarians. They knew that laws are only for the lawless. Law-abiders who restrain themselves, need no external restraint. Unless citizens exersize self-control, freedom is impossible.

A libertine / liberal is really a relativist who only wants to restrain/control himself from doing what is wrong in his own eyes.

Unlike America's Framers, a libertine cares nothing for an absolute standard: "the rule of law".

Note how the St.Pete Slimes (Pravda West) traps itself with its headline.

Reading further, the gist of the article is that Rush's "disrespect for law-and-order" evinces a "lurch to the left"........."even more that the most linguini-spined liberal".

Hmmmmm, freepers, use on your own deductive reasoning after reading as to what the Prava writer is unwittingly saying.

I love it!
