Don't confuse liberalism (free trade, free exchange of ideas, etc--Cheney was a liberal) with populism and anarchic leftism. The New Times like the idea of free trade when it comes to porn and pot (gotta sell ads), but draws a weird line at new development. I still like to read them, but I know what I'm getting, so I generally stick to their discussion about culture and food.
