Rand Paul is described as a libertarian. Which is why I said that.

That isn't very libertarian of the speaker.

Perhaps you would prefer Pinko-Stinko Commie Liberals to control the minds of the (feeble) people?

i hear about this everyday. it's very depressing. the aquarium in new orleans has picked up at least 28 turtles already but that's not stilll not enough. i'll be very happy when they call aquarium volunteers like me to the aquatic center. must be patient...
