My state's governor has lost it

[A Black Falcon]

Sure, Democrats do a few bad things (the ones who support the TPP, the ones who supported or still support the Patriot Act, that the party doesn't do nearly enough about climate change, etc.), but the two parties are incredibly far apart on almost every issue. On civil liberties in particular, Democrats could be better, but most Republicans are much, MUCH worse. Libertarian-ish Republicans (Rand Paul and such) are better on civil liberties than most in their party of course, but there are so many other issues that they are horribly wrong on compared to what Democrats support... libertarians are weird, good on civil liberties but terrible on what they think government should do (government is not evil!). Of course Rand Paul is more Republican than Libertarian, but he tries to be at least partially libertarian, particularly on civil liberties... abortion rights not included of course, that should be banned according to people like him.
