F.Y.I. doesn't seem like a lot of liberals want to go here either. "In 1977, Donald Rumsfeld (a former member of the U.S. Congress and the Chief of Staff in the Gerald Ford Administration) was hired as President and CEO of G.D. Searle. Attorney James Turner, Esq. has alleged that G.D. Searle hired Rumsfeld to facilitate the aspartame approval difficulties that they were experiencing." http://www.naturalnews.com/023175.html And of course the Searle/Rummy connection.

Fox, his campaign for government stem cell research and his MS. Finding the cause rather than expensive solutions should be on every conservative's agenda IMHO. But of course the neocons won't touch the aspartame issue with a ten foot pole. When I've touched on this subject in the past I had no idea that Michael J. Fox himself was a diet Pepsi addict. I only learned this recently. And as an example the “microcosm” would be the issue of Michael J. Fox, his campaign for government stem cell research and his MS.

Which leads to... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm That being said it's bewildering that not many "conservatives" will chime in on this and many other subjects. Vested interests? Corporate sponsors? I've noticed that many conservatives don't have any real game. Perhaps they have to "check with the boss" before commenting? The "game" coming from the Paul camp is fiscal conservatism and real free markets as well as the informed consumer...
