Immediate withdrawal from Iraq, legalizing marijuana, same-sex marriage and adoption, and a progressive sales tax.

He's actually in closer alignment on the issues with most Democrats than Obama or Clinton are.

Whatever, Mud. Go back to ancient Rome. Imperialism is not the American way. And what is this 'good' you speak of? Good as defined by who, you? You think any human can define so-called 'good and evil'. The things don't even exist. They are mind-control concepts. If someone you believe informs you your actions are 'evil', chances are you stop doing the thing. Same with good... they tell you you're doing something 'good', you keep doing it.

Like training a dog to eat newborn human babies. Every time it kills and eats one, pat the dog on the head and give it a dog treat, "Good doggy.".

And apparently Borowits isn't that good, because most of us haven't heard of him until today.

Who is/are "us?" I had heard of him.

Even if you hadn't, you should have been able to recognize satire, especially on April Fool's day.
