Oh, I've openly expressed this sentiment for years. I never for a moment trusted the old-guard Republican party, even as leftists were stabbing me and almost everyone else in the back.

The party could've maybe gone somewhere useful (IE, focusing on prioritizing first amendment rights) if it wasn't still being dragged down by these ghouls. But even that's probably too optimistic given how totally corrupt every and any politician quickly becomes.

And to reply to the second part of your comment somewhat, I do think that consistent and nearly total support for freedom of speech is probably the best baseline to work from. Granted, there "might" be some gray areas to factor in, but generally speaking, I've yet to see any instance where censorship or widespread surveillance has ever been used for legitimate good. And it's one of the most reliable indicators that'll reveal whether or not someone is a grifter with a hidden agenda.

(Pretty sure you got downvoted there for presuming that people around here weren't already long-sick of neocons, and saying it with a somewhat cocky and self-promoting kind of attitude. Not that I downvoted you or am judging you at all, just didn't want you to get the wrong impression about why people might've been downvoting you.)

Granted, there "might" be some gray areas to factor in, but generally speaking, I've yet to see any instance where censorship or widespread surveillance has ever been used for legitimate good, and it's one very reliable indicator of whether or not someone is a manipulative grifter with an agenda.
