    @ Timberman

    WT: "... I wasn't trying to embarrass you, bucky -- I'm not at all sure that's possible -- but I wouldn't think it amiss if you reconsidered some of your certainties from time to time. Perhaps some might be as faulty as your recollection of TR's party affiliations. ..."

    Yes you were, no need to lie. There was no "heat of battle", and I typed Teddy rather than Franklin; have a good time with that.

    I doubt seriously you even understand my position on most issues; certainly you never have shown understanding. But then, you always get in little bigoted shots at "libertarians" when you do not even know what it means --- or never show that you do.

    In the last half of the 20th century many people who claimed to be 'liberal' were not; nor are they today. You are a prised example of this phenomenon.
