"Get off my property" you know I'd have a hard time not voting for a politician who used that as their campaign slogan.

I'm guessing you thought I was way off on your political philosophy but right on the button about the other two.

sorry, i think you're up in the night on all three...

except for maybe the libertarians and liberals.

Considering his 'skewering' of liberalism is that they are just so dog-gone good and nice that everyone screws them I'd say it was self-evident.

Mr Scalzi has a real penchant for hyperbole...

I'm so sorry the writer of this screed has apparently suffered from a lifetime of erectile dysfunction and digestive complaint. I am equally sorry that his blatant misunderstanding of all things political has somehow empowered him to discourse on his errors ad nauseum

If I could speak directly to him I would say "Take heart my impotent friend, you might aspire to literacy and one day be able to write something nearly intelligible that could be read by grown-ups and not laughed at for its precious silliness. You're not there yet".

The author conveniently forgot to mention that liberals are scumbags.

I score him zero for three ... a big give-away is his thinking the liberals got screwed in the 2000 election because they play too fair and too nice, rofl.

We should feel flattered that he left his diggings in a hillside cave and came out to share this with us!

Conservatives:......an intellectual class that publicly praises family values but privately engages in sodomy, coke and trophy wives......

I've lived out here on the Left Coast for so long that I no longer know any Conservatives in person.

I hate to pry but, ummm....errr....do you guys really do all that?

If I can get my first and only wife to look like a trophy wife, can I pass on the other two and still belong to the Consevative Club?

JS is not only ignorant, but intillectually dishonest. It is quite obvious he is a liberal. He half-heartedly derides the liberal cause for a lack of success more than anything else. Read the criticism of the conservative ideology. Looks like snivelling from DUh. Read the criticism of liberalism. Does is have the air of a Freeper description of the left? Not hardly. It wreaks of a frustrated socialist who isn't getting his way often enough.

This drivel is dishonest and lazy.

Liberal: "I believe what I believe because I'm smarter than you."

Conservative: "I believe what I believe because I'm more patriotic than you."

Libertarian: "I believe what I believe because I'm BOTH smarter AND more patriotic than you."

Communist: "I believe what I believe because I'm NOT as smart or as patriotic as you."

...and the rest of you just want your guns, drugs and brothels (here in the US, we call them folks "libertarians").

Here in Illbay-land we call them folks "Libertines," so as not to besmirch the high and honorable concepts of true liberty as they were originally established in our nation's founding documents.

Although the Libertines are quick to claim the unequivocal support of the shades of Jefferson, Madison and all the rest, the fact is I doubt they EVER seriously sat down to hash out an explicit address of the right to par-tay.
