There isn't a dime's worth of political difference, other than a political label, between Rooty and Ted Kennedy.
That is an astonishing statement. Their positions differ roughly 180 degrees on Iraq and the WOT (USA-PATRIOT, SWIFT, etc.); that difference right there is worth more than a dime, even if Rudy is far more liberal than I'd like.
More importantly, Rudy has better legs. :P
Before this astonishing statement, your extreme behavior could be explained by the fact you're a one issue zealot. Now, I have to put mental illness into the mix.
