Hey there Sarge, always good to see ya - was in fact just thinkin of you the other day... had to pitch a political canvasser off the property and the little weasel had the nerve to query me as I "escorted" him off the premises.

Told him I was "Militant Moderate" and he's like "Eh? What does that even MEAN?"...
To which I responsed "It MEANS, leave me alone or I put my foot up your ass!"

Little while after I was thinkin, yanno, that really *is* a pretty good description of a libertarian-anarchist platform, and that you'd have gotten a kick out of it.

I don't wholly concur with their conclusions, but Alternet just reposted a bit by the more conservative Salon, which imma post here more or less just to wind em up, cause the methodology of the thing was much more scientific, and wound up making the opposite argument.

It DOES however, show pretty clearly that the original Esquire poll was more or less a propaganda push combined with golden mean fallacy though.

Even Right-Wingers Become Liberals When They Turn Off Fox News

These two facts are both in full force with respect to the ongoing post-shutdown budget battle. In fact, a sophisticated poll covering 31 budget items as well as revenue sources conducted around the 2010 elections found that, even then, Republican, Democratic and independent voters all agreed on much higher taxes and much deeper defense cuts as the most striking elements of how the budget should be crafted.

Emphasis mine - cause I think that is the real sticking point, the amount of money we waste on Corporate Welfare to the Military-Intelligence-Industrial Combine.

On *THAT* one, you'd have to go pretty far in most cases to find someone profoundly stupid enough, morally vile enough, to continue to support our so-called-protectors now that we know what monsters they are.
