The party exists to supress.

To suppress the fraudulent distortions of the left, yes,
thereby to promote individual freedom.

For me,
politics is all about fighting for personal Individual freedom.

In the context of their own time, the FFs were left of center on a few issues with the exception of slavery.

The FF's were radical Liberals for their day. Even David agrees with that.

Yes, I agree, with the understanding that the paradigm
from which thay were DEVIATING was the divine right of Kings.

Liberalism means turning away from SOMETHING, or being unfaithful to something.
It is important to understand what it IS from which one turns away, or is unfaithful.

For instance, when Boris Yeltsin was liberal regarding communism,
he quit the party.

When Rudolf Hess was liberal concerning nazism, he flew to Scotland, in defiance of Hitler's war policy.

If a man wears a fine conservative tuxedo
with a pair of red sneakers, he is being liberal qua the paradigm of evening attire.

If 2 men contract for the sale of 3 peaches,
and only 2 peaches are delivered for the same amount of $$,
then someone is taking a liberal interpretation of that contract.

As applied to the divine right of Kings: right.

For someone who alleges to have been a practicing attorney, you know dangerously little about law, the Constitution and politics. As far as history is concerned, you are no more informed than okie.

Yes, you have. Somehow, you either escaped my notice or you flowered during the years I was away.

Definition 2c is consistent with my view of liberalism and flies in the face of david's.

Its not that, Plain.

Its that u have absorbed and accepted a great deal of error over the decades
and u cling to that error, rejecting truth that conflicts therewith.

That is not my problem.

You couldn't possibly be this clueless. What planet have you been living on for the past, ... it's gotta be more than 50 years?

The truth of the matter is that you're just not very smart. There are several regulars on these boards who do not believe you were an attorney. My own suspicion is that you were the doorman at the Bar Association headquarters in NYC.

While most people know what neener neener means, david seldom knows what common references like neener neener or resale shop means.

So it seems to u,
thru the distortions of your mental lens of liberal perversion.
I care not of your problems.

Which ones ?
How did u acquire that information? Did u take a survay ??

U keep hammering away at that,
as if it had some significance. I am not here recruiting clients.
I 've been retired for years.
