I don't fear racism or homophobia. I don't like them, and wouldn't vote for politicians who blatantly support them, but they don't affect me and I'm rather selfish. What I do fear is Paul gutting all of the actual useful federal agencies such as the EPA and running around acting like a retard screaming 'the South will rise again'. Which is why I despise the man. Kucinich is everything everyone loves about Paul minus the batshit insanity.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

NP, what do you expect the Fair Tax to fix? If you think the Fair Tax will fix the rich paying disproportionately more of their income as taxes, then the Fair Tax must increase the tax burden on the lower classes. That's basic math. If you don't think it fixes that, then why do you love it so much?

I was speaking idiomatically.
