I would be curious to learn what pack of lies are being told about me.
Or, then again, maybe not -- just chalk it all up as lies, and come right here to learn the truth, FRiend.
foundedonpurpose: "Are you a communist by chance?
Those that came over from Europe in the 1830s were very influential in the Norths campaign."
Such questions insult your own intelligence, not mine.
Virtually everyone posting on Free Republic is a conservative of one stripe or another -- none are liberals, progressives or Democrats, much less socialists, Marxists or communists.
For you to claim otherwise is simply poor judgment and bad faith, both of which reflect poorly on you, FRiend.
You are a statist, not a socialist.
