Liberty is the ability to define licentious for yourself (so long as it does not damage another/'s liberty in the process...)... LOL! ok, so liberty is having your own licentiousness ratified by the state. got it.

If conservatives were the amoral, fascists we're made out to be- we'd fully support abortion and contraceptives. Studies show it's the liberals that make the most use of them- and so basically, we could wipe out liberals with their help. Almost 90% of the public uses contraceptives. This nonsense is rooted in another time. When women and new born infants routinely died. When more than half your children died in the first few years of life.

Good thing some of our early Presidents didn't have TV around. Them ugly SOBs would get hammered by people on the 'important' shit like how they look. ![](http://general-history.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/the-american-presidents.jpg) In case I'm being to subtle, you all really need a life if something like a sweater vest is a major sticking point for you.

What to me is more interesting is that if Santorium wins the nomination over Romney it will be a case where money does not buy the nomination. Romney has out spent the other candidates by a wide margin and still has little to show for it.

Santorem sure seems to be obsessed with the act of procreation, as well as all the sideline issues thereof. I guess that now, he is making an issue out of prenatal testing. His concern with my sex life is somewhat unsettling....but so is his obsession with other Obama's religious beliefs. This guy is starting to make Perry appear normal, by comparison!

Its already costing him in the polls. Mitt is now tied or beating Santorum in the latest polls from Michigan.

Well we've just elected two ugly Governor's in a row here in Maine. ![](http://syonidv.hodginsmedia.com/vsmileys/nerdy.png) Oh, wait. That's because we don't have any beautiful people here in Maine. ![](http://syonidv.hodginsmedia.com/vsmileys/unwell.png) That and the population of your entire state is only slightly more than my county and that's a pretty small gene pool to pick from.

... And yet some are obsessed with his fashionable sweater vest. He knows damn, good, and well what the effect of the sweater vest will be. It is manipulative politics no different than any thing else a big league politician does.

The effect of the sweater vest is invariably many fewer offers to engage in the act of pro-creation... ![](http://syonidv.hodginsmedia.com/vsmileys/sick.png)

Now that I think about it, I think that he should get his dressing tips from bob Dylan:
"Now the preacher looked so baffled When I asked him why he dressed With twenty pounds of headlines Stapled to his chest But he cursed me when I proved it to him Then I whispered, "Not even you can hide You see, you're just like me I hope you're satisfied"

Nothing wrong with the sweater vest. It brings back memories of the "good old days" and the preppy look. Fashion always repeats itself.

Everything is wrong with the sweater vest. It's hideous.

As your feelings about the sweater vest are your opinion, diamonds. Is it slanted, too? Nah. Neither is slanted. Both are opinions. Let's not pick fights, eh?

Nothing wrong with a sweater vest, some of us can make it look good.
Sanitorium, not so much .....
Regardless, doesn't matter what he wears, he's too far out there to be considered for POTUS.
Not to mention the cover of GQ ....

I remember checking out the FB page of an old GF from back in the day. She posted her high school pics from the early 80's Madonna " Like a Virgin" days. It's been +-30 years....time to let the look go.
