The hate I was referring to would be your labeling me a "living document liberal" and "useful idiot". You folks are entirely too eager to stick negative labels on others that don't fit your ever-tightening requirements.

I am, in fact, entirely for a much, much, much smaller government, especially Federal.

“...Yet, even those principles change. It is the nature of politics.”

BEDROCK principles do NOT change over time. That’s why they’re called that. If they change, they are NOT core principles. I don’t have a clue as to WHAT they are. Just as the Bible, God’s Word, DOES NOT CHANGE. Too often people change its meaning to suit their current desires. That’s all. If you think it’s OK to change up over time and give up whatever “beliefs” you might hold for whatever is faddish at the moment, YOU ARE A LIVING DOCUMENT LIBERAL. You got a problem with that?

Right. And I suppose all you McCain supporters are perfect ladies and gentlemen towards those of us who dissent. Except for telling us to shut our stinking traps. And except for calling us self-absorbed punks. And oh, that rage-oholic thing...and then there’s...well, you get the picture.
