Sigh . . . will you folks PLEASE stop talking about each other and start talking about the issues at hand?

Trying again:

GfS, you should know by now that quotes from a blogger who is a self-avowed Libertarian aren't going to carry much weight outside the extreme right-wing fringe. Not that I disagreed with everything he was saying, but that someone with such an obvious bias isn't a good place to go for real news. I'm WAY more interested in what you think than in what some Libertarian blogger thinks.

That being said, I'd like to draw your attention to the first sentence of the article you linked to:

For a people to be free, they must first be honest with themselves, their government, and the world at large.

I'm glad you want to get back to talking about freedom, and apparently want to approach the subject honestly. I'm unclear, however, on exactly what you mean when you talk about freedom. Can you spell out some the freedoms you want us all to have, which ones you only want some of us to have, and which ones no one should have?

Do you believe that all freedoms enjoyed by Americans should be delineated by the Constitution? Do you believe the Constitution should be amended to fit modern times, should be interpreted with an understanding that the world has changed and that the concepts are more important than the actual words, or that it should be left as is and interpreted literally?
