Most FReepers have a selective view on Freedom.. they believe in it for themselves, but the thought of granting it to others scares the hell out of them.

It never ceases to amaze me that so many on our side consider drug law reform a 'liberal' issue. Biden is just another in a long list of leftist politicians who are the most fervent Drug Warrior jackbooted-thug boosters among us.
History teaches us that so-called 'progressives' love using the power of the state to criminalize possession of mind-altering chemicals: the 18th Amendment, for example, was the result of years of pressure from the unholy alliance of teetotaling bible-thumpers and the 'Progressives' of their day.
Hitler, of course, was a famous teetotaler, and communists like Che Guevara routinely railed against alcohol/drug use because it got in the way of revolutionary fervor.

Like the doctrinaire Leftist, the doctrinaire Drug Warrior believes that he knows better than the average citizen what's good for you, and won't hesitate to jail you to prove it. See post #3 for a good example of the authoritarian Drug Warrior mindset.

Same here for BB10, although at times I find myself wondering where do they manage to find such crybabies. “You lied to me”, etc. LOL.

Biden also supports the RIAA and several IP_enhancement laws passed at its behest.

Biden also supports the RIAA and several IP_enhancement laws passed at its behest. It's as though the Democrats asked themselves, "Now who would hold Obama's campaign back the most?"
To: AxelPaulsenJr
...now you have gone and posted something that might make me like Biden. But this isn't going to cause the I-like-the-taste-of-bootleather demographic to vote for Obama now, is it?
To: BlazingArizona
No, not really, it will however, cost him the liberdopian, demographic.

Real Conservatives like William F. Buckley were on the right side of this issue, and understood entirely that it was a question of basic concepts of Freedom and liberty. Unfortunetly, to gain the majority, the GOP took in all sorts of democrats, who were Christian and Patriotic but otherwise are leftists in that they believe the government exists to tell other people how to live.

Hehe... I wonder how the Red diaper Doper Babies are going to handle this one...
I'm betting their ability to hold two contradictory ideals in their head at the same time will be as adroit as the most avid "pro-Constitution" Drug Warriors...

Well I don’t know about that. I agree with you, but the labels have changed. Conservatives used to believe in a wide ranging ideology of freedom and classical liberalism, while liberals were the populists who sought majorities to whip into a frenzy to try to gain more government control, and power over others.
The GOP has, over the last 20 years, become a party NOT where the positions stem from the ideology, but one where the ideology stems from the positions. Now, I happen to agree with most of those positions, but with the cart before the horse, eventually you hit disaster. Such was the case from 2000-2006, where, without ideology as the driving force, the GOP was able to rationalize selling out on a myriad of issues in the belief that by assuring their own perpetual control they could protect some of the few key positions that had become paramount.
