        Note that Wilson refers to it as a "political rule" and not a moral rule; he seems more concerned with style than with substance.

        Well, the GOP has been for wage slavery for decades now, and has shown no qualms about it.

        @TheRickWilson Lincoln was anything but a conservative... How do they get away with clear historical misinterpretation?

        Party of Lincoln sets out to prove that whole "all of the people all of the time" thing was actually a dare.

        @Soccerpolitics @TheRickWilson MN 02 is an excellent opportunity for Dems. Lewis looks like another 40% candidate.
