I guess you're supposed to hate the gummint only when they come after *your* moonshine still, but anything else they do is a-OK.

Hey, the liberal light is always on at the Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy. Please stop by and say "hi!"

1. Conservatives are authoritarians first.
This shouldn't surprise anyone. Conservatives are all about control and authority - this is why they intrinsically hate the idea of grass roots, bottom up democracy.

3. Not suprised
These guys would pull out the Ben Franklin quote, "Those who trade freedom for security, deserves neither freedom no security' if they thought Bill Clinton looked at the Constitution funny, but don't worry, as soon as the Dems come back to power, they will be embracing the Constitution, as if it was tattooed on their chests.
