It is damned scary that you, and so many others here, have come to such a view.
Perhaps the hysterical headlines are true - conservatism may in fact be dead.
"Ah - so one can forfeit their right to be free of unwarranted government intrusion by communicating with someone who has expressed a repugnant opinion."
During wartime, it *is* warranted.
You and your ilk are the scary ones. You crave total freedom, regardless of the consequences, even when it might very well directly lead to the deaths of scores, hundreds, perhaps thousands of Americans. Were your bankrupt ideas ever to come to reality, we would never be able to fight an effective war. If conservatism is dying, it's the loony libertarians who hold much of the blame.
