> In principle, this could be is legitimate.For example, if someone says “I’m opposed to big government, abortion, and anti-christian bigotry, but I’m not a conservative.” I’ll probably say, “Bull, you hold nothing but conservative beliefs.”

> But that’s not what **Bricker** is doing. He’s not providing any examples of liberal beliefs that **Uzi** holds except for this one, hence my claim his reasoning is circular. His line of reasoning is akin to “I think date-rape is really overstated and the law needs to distinguish between that and legitimate rape, but I’m not a conservative.” “Bull, only conservatives are so wrong about rape and only conservatives are so anti-woman, you must be a conservative.”

Just 'cos I like money wrenches in general. 😃

> Atheist - Check  
> Pro Gay Marriage - Check  
> Pro Education (should be free until first degree or trade school completed) - Check  
> Pro support for those who need help between jobs or can’t physically or mentally work - Check  
> Pro drug legalization (all drugs, not just weed) - Check  
> Pro assisted suicide (for everyone for any reason - waiting period applies) - Check

If you choose to use that education to take advanced flower arranging and can’t get a job, then it sucks to be you, but we shouldn’t have to support you indefinitely until you ‘find’ yourself. Inject battery acid into your veins for all I care, but if it affects your judgement then you better not get into a car and drive down the road. And if there is a new voting requirement then don’t expect the rest of the world to stop because you can’t figure out or arrange to get an ID within a two or four year period.
