So you're lumping him into your wishy washy "moderate" camp?

I posted this is another thread but I think it applies here as well:
Our constitution may not be perfect but I am glad that it was drafted as good as it was, was ratified, and has been adhered to as close as it has been ever since.
Only men who had recently been victims of systematic oppression could have come up with, agreed on, and signed into law many of the concepts that we take for granted today.
While most people agree that we have drifted away, in practice, from ideas set forth by our constitution.. I think screwing with it any time in the near future is extremely dangerous. Some of the laws contained therein have been the saving grace of basic human rights in this country.
Until this country is no longer so deeply divided along political lines.. we should do the best we can to apply our constitution in practice, for better or worse, regardless of how dated it may seem sometimes.

Yes.
Easiest way to defeat liberalism, education.
Not a liberal just because I can admit Obama is not the first to poke holes in the Constitution. Do you disagree with what I posted?
