What can I say, you guys fascinate me. I would love to see examples of what you consider "color". If I have misapprehensions, it's not for...
I have a question for you. How many people have to "misunderstand" what you are saying before you start to believe you are not communicating very...
I think your imagination is getting the best of you. Why do you suspect I would be angry with you or libertarians in general? You guys are an...
