Silly lefties, no matter how many times I tell them, they can't tell the difference between no government and less government.

It's a necessary strawman for them.

None? Really? Do you eat food? take medication? Watch TV? Listen to radio? Fly in a plane? etc.

This country is diverse and multi-cultural, whether you like it or not.

Who the hell does't support justice?

That has nothing to do with what I said.

Don't make a fool out of yourself. If you can't grasp my larger point, I'll explain it to you, just spare me the usual distortion of my statements.

You all are being ridiculously obtuse.

I'm merely pointing out the parallels between yourselves and those you constantly criticize.

Much of your belief system is based on emotion.

Is it that the left is trying to restrict abortions; require women to undergo demeaning and unneeded tests to have an abortion? Is it the left that's trying to interfere with people getting contraception? Is the left trying to restrict loving couples from marrying?

No. It's the right trying to dictate social norms and control society. It's the left trying to allow individuals to make choices for themselves.
