Now that's the smartest thing said yet. Smaller government is the key...I don't want your restictions OR your handouts. Just leave me alone government.
What I meant by outlier was people outside the popular mode of thinking... which Libs certainly are...

Now if only the "self-regulating free market" touted to be Boss by the USA was actually what they said it was...

It disturbs me to see them endorsing someone like Boxer. Every incumbent needs to be voted out of office.
