1. "Freedom of speech must be protected."

What I meant was, the freedom to say whatever I want must be protected, the stupid shit you say isn't protected.

2. "I am not beholden to the special interests"

What I meant was, special interests other than the NRA, AIPAC, oil & gas lobby, chemical industry lobby, etc., you know, those that give me stuff and do stuff for me.

3. "freedom of religion must be protected"

What I meant was, MY religion must be protected, YOUR religion is wrong so needn't be protected

4. "getting stuff from the Government makes you a freeloader and pathetic"

What I meant was, other than myself who gets stuff from the Government, because I earned my stuff and am entitled to it.
