And let me remind you also that moderation
in the pursuit of justice is no virtue."

Gotta love Barry! His definition of liberty might be different than some. His finest hour I believe is when he supported William Jefferson Clinton.
 -- Waffler, Smith, Arkansas		 
The basis of the neoconservative theory... No thanks.

If he supported Clinton it would have undone every thing positive he ever did in life. Supporting Clinton would be a black hole of ignorance. It would suck every bit of IQ out of any one that tried it.
