LOL Yes, I'm sure a conservative right wing webpage is going to list a bunch of Republicans as the biggest freedom fighters.
The New American is owned by the John Birch Society, the biggest bunch of crackpot reactionaries in America. They're the ones satirized in Stanley Kubrick's film, Dr. Strangelove, or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love the Bomb. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1KvgtEnABY
That's true. Thomas Massie and Justin Amash are both Great. Dennis Kunnich Should be up There. Rand is ok. I have no idea Why he voted yes to the NDAA.
