If words had meaning -- which they do not, largely thanks to public schools -- you might call me a republican (note the lowercase "r") and a classical liberal. Please do not call me a Libertarian.

I am an advocate of:
 * personal liberty.
 * personal responsibility.
 * honesty.
 * careful use of words (a futile effort perhaps, but one I am not willing to abandon).
 * a strong, outward-looking military.
 * objective law.
 * watching the watchers.
 * The Constitution of the United States -- all of it.
 * guns, guns, and more guns.
 * the Space elevator.

I am opposed to:
 * slavery in all its disguises.
 * the culture of victimhood.
 * the lack of education.
 * the lack of caring about education.
 * the use of education as a political cudgel.
 * the alphabet soup of inward-looking federal paramilitary agencies.
 * George W. Bush.
 * John F. Kerry (worse than Bush, if you can believe that).
 * Ralph Nader (worse than Kerry, if you can believe that).
 * toadying to the UN.
 * the continued existence of California, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Iran, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, France, and the United Nations.

Words to live by:
 * Raise your own damn kids.
 * Stop blaming other people.
 * "Eyes! Muzzle!  Target!"
