Reply #31: In my opinion this is because the right wing

[Tsar_Bomba]

benefits from painting liberals as naive because they believe in the rule of law. Right wingers talk a lot about defending the beat cop or laws in general but only until these laws interfere or conflict with right wing philosophy. For example they defend gun rights but where will it end. A liberal will legislate a gun law, something like a license to carry. This would be totally reasonable since we need a license to drive a car. The right winger makes a big deal over it, next thing you know their talking about personal nuclear weapons and their constitutional rights to have them, and if we object we are back were we started.

The right does not believe in the rule of law, we have seen this in the GWB administration. This is the issue that needs to be pushed whenever we deal with the right, use their rhetoric against them all the time.
