The GOP Hates Freedom

Freedom Democrats has an interesting graphic display of where the two major parties’ legislators fall on the political map http://freedomdemocrats.org/node/455
Except for one outlier, presumably Ron Paul, the GOPers cluster in the Authoritarian region with some Right Conservative guys, while the Democrats mainly inhabit the Centrist, Left Liberal, and even Libertarian neighborhoods.

It seems to me that it would be a lot easier for freedom loving folks to move the Democrats toward the Libertarian area than to drag the GOPers from their gated community in Authoritarian Acres. The GOP hates freedom. The religious right hates freedom. A lot of their duped followers are scared of freedom.
