Every time you hear a Repug say "freedom"..
... be it in a slogan, a speech, a diatribe - just substitute the word "money" for "freedom" and you'll know what they are really saying.

1. Yeah, I have a rather visceral reaction when * tries
sloganeering in a speech and he mouths "government of the people, by the people and for the people!"

8. Something the followers of the right can't understand-
freedom is never preserved by taking it away.
