They've taken over the Liberal Party here, and I mean this seriously, and it's a very frightening pointer to what could happen if they ever win government in the U.S. It's blind idealogy over every vestige of intelligence and common sense.

I hope you're smarter than people in this country, and keep them on the lunatic fringes where they belong.
