Gao, you are acting like an idiot... an idiot who ignores facts if they don't conform to your paranoid preconceptions of reality.

Re: "admit you made a mistake with regards to your statement of what guarantees our freedom."

>>> How can I 'admit' what I don't know - by objective criteria - to be true. I would rather rely on the 'checks and balances' designed into our Constitution to preserve our freedoms (something which provides evidence of it's success) than mystical claims by any particular sect. As Mark Twain once observed "They are at least 100,000 different religions... Each, and every one of them claim that they - and they alone - have the one true way to Heaven." He went on to observe that "they can't all be right". I prefer to rely on objective evidence when designing Earthly governments.

Re: "And please, don't give me that "I am not a democrat excuse."

>>> What excuse? It's a fact, and you are an idiot for ignoring facts. (But perhaps you prefer your dreams to reality?)

Re: "And I was using the word mainstream in a sarcastic sense. You are definite extreme left wing loon material."

>>> If believing in small government, low taxes, Free Markets, Democracy, and individual human rights makes me an 'extremist', than I'm happy to be labeled such.

Re: "And if you love your country, why are you working so diligently at undermining the Constitution?"

>>> Obviously, I'm not. But it's increasingly smelling like you are... a nut case who cares not for objective reality.
