<div class="usermessage"><div class="plainlinks">'''''"If you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism. I think conservatism is really a misnomer just as liberalism is a misnomer for the liberals—if we were back in the days of the Revolution, so-called conservatives today would be the Liberals and the liberals would be the Tories. The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is."'''''-]<ref>Reason Magazine, 1975-07-01</ref></div></div> |

And if we had warming, it should be accomplished by less storminess. But because the temperature itself is so unspectacular, we have developed all sorts of fear of prospect scenarios -- of flooding, of plague, of increased storminess when the physics says we should see less. I think it's mainly just like little kids locking themselves in dark closets to see how much they can scare each other and themselves."'''''-]<ref>{{cite news| url=http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0701/31/lkl.01.html | work=CNN | accessdate=May 22, 2010}}</ref> |
