skepticism and irreverence

Now THERE's a winning political formula (/sarc). Another term for it is "political nihilism."

That's OK. Every pompous windbag should be pricked - those with too much internal pressure will burst.

If intentional, that was the best post I've seen all day, and I applaude you at your wordplay.

If not, I just need more caffeine.

No, political nihilism is what you see at the anarchists' convention.

I think the author is wrong about simplifying everything to irreverance. I think South Park demonstrates pure reverance in the morals of their fables: personal responsibility; truth; respect for others; freedom of choice.

No skepticism and irreverence here. We love Dear Leader (He so Ronery)

We libertarians are just looking for the moment to stab the "bible thumpers" in the back. We are growing and our day will come as the older Pre-Baby Boomer collectivist friendly generation dies off anf.

Don't forget, the libertarian leaning states such as Nevada are the fastest growing states in the USA.
