If a policemen would do it to you and then order that you walk naked with pink panties on your head around the town, would you consider it a pleasure or an abuse?

You know, I think you and I were on the LP NatComm at the same time. I served in 1986 and 1987. I was a hardcore Jim Turney-ite. Attended NatComm meetings in Baltimore, Los Angeles, and other cities. Shame you equate putting panties on someone's head, with torture. Does that mean if my wife throws some pink panties on my head late at night when she's being a bit playful, she's actually "torturing me?" --- In [email protected], "steven linnabary" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Eric Dondero Rittberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > Steven, what makes you think you are a "libertarian?" > > > > I see no evidence of your libertarian beliefs. > > > > Are you: > > > > Pro-Choice? > > Pro-Abolition of the Income Tax? > > Pro-Howard Stern & Absolute Free Speech? > > Pro-Gambling Legalization? > > Pro-Prostitution Legalization? > > Pro-Gold Standard & Sound Money? > > Pro-Privatization? > > Anti-Regulation? > > Anti-Draft? > > Anti-United Nations Membership? > > Anti-Foreign Aid? > > Anti-Seat Belt & Helmet Laws? > > > > If you answer Yes to the above, I'll give you a pass.
