==Major deletions==

{{WikiProject banner shell|class=B|1=

[[User:Thejackhmr]] recently deleted several entire paragraphs of material from this article on no apparent basis other than his apparent dislike of what it said. Thejackhmr: are you saying that any of these statements are not true? I considered them sufficiently self-evident not to need documentation, but if you are doubting them, I suppose I can search out citations. Or do you have some other reason for the deletions?

== Essentially they espouse classical liberalism? ==

I really try to avoid edit wars, so am refraining from simply reverting your edits. I'd like your reply before I edit.

The quote in the lede - "Essentially they espouse classical liberalism" - seems very strange to me. Neither the currennt Dems or Repubs satisfy this. Why do the odd opinions of one person get such prominence? [[User:William M. Connolley|William M. Connolley]] ([[User talk:William M. Connolley|talk]]) 17:43, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

(I will ping Thejackhmr on his talk page to make sure he sees this.) -- [[User:Jmabel|Jmabel]] 04:22, Aug 9, 2004 (UTC)

== Copyright problem removed ==

::No, no... no edit war is going to happen. Your wording, and the concept of ''liberal'' as a pejorative term, struck me as subjective, but if there's any place to be liberal with the NPOV rules, this is it. Sorry, i won't bother you here. Bye, ~thejackhmr
