"You must not listen to Limbaugh and his ilk"

Rush is a radio talk show host, not politician. Compare him to Al Franken, not Ted Kennedy.

"But I hate their policies when they threaten to undermine my freedoms"

I suggest you are a bit paranoid. I have seen nothing that a typical law abiding U.S. citizen should fear. What SPECIFICALLY has you worried with the new legislation?

"I have been pulled aside at airports and had my underwear sifted for bombs more times than I care to remember"

What causes them to pull you aside? I have only flown a few times since 9-11-01, and I have been impressed with the extra security. Nobody has pulled me aside or checked my underware.

" I have been pulled over at a Gestapo-style highway roadblock and been forced to produce my driver's license and state my destination and business"

Again, why? Why are you being targeted? I do drive a lot, and have never heard of a gestapo style road block. They do have the drunk dirving check points (which I am against), but I would be surprised if there is a general screening of our citizens on the road. Although the drunk driving checkpoints have been declared constitutional, I am not aware of the "Gestapo-style highway roadblock". Please explain the purpose of this if you want me to weigh in on it. Because as a general principal, I am against "Gestapo-style highway roadblock(s)".
