I think Republicans have so ruined their reputation with liberarians types and true constitutional conservatives that they will never win again, unless they change.
We need a new party.
I believe if we had some real leaders out front and organized NOW we could steamroller the liberals. People are fed up, they just don’t have a choice.
“You want to intervene in every little conflict and play World Cop when the overwhelming majority opposes it.”
That’s the only way you can make your argument look reasonable by comparison is to accuse non isolationists as wanting all wars, all the time.
Find quotes from me stating my support sending US troops for Bosnia, Africa, Egypt, Libya and other non-strategic and civil war conflicts.
You typify the reason I would never call myself a Libertarian. Like the “Lib” part of your ideology, you are a utopian who has no firm grasp on reality.
I thought I was on the ping list, but I haven’t received any pings for quite a while.
Please include me.
Sarah gets it! Again . . . How does Cruz/Palin 2016 sound?
Gasp! I am sorry eCSMaster
I didn't know, I shall add you right away.
Sarah has always been worth supporting. I make it a point to send her gas money for her bus regularly.
BBBBTTT
Big, Bad, Beautiful Bump To The Top.
“People are tired of war.”
Not the arabs and islamofascists.
” >>This is why theres a huge libertarian drug-addled, baby-killing, packer/muncher movement going on this country... “
That’s why Bill Maher said he’s a libertarian.
“While Zer0 is wagging the dog, Iran is getting ready to mount a Super-EMP nuclear warhead on their fourth-generation Fateh 110 missile destined for launch over the eastern U.S.A. Lights out Zer0!”
but some here will still call for congressional authorization to deal with that missile...after Congress has a BBQ of course!
You show me a packer, and I'll show you a pederast.
Soooo, I guess you missed the baby-killing, boy-raping part...
Or were you planning to defend that?
It appears that Palin is more and more separating herself from McCain. I say go Sarah.
Please put me on your ping list. Thanks!

Uhhh, I’m not a member of the LP. And I don’t consider myself a libertarian, either. While I’m sympathetic to many of their views, particularly on guns and reduction of the size of government, their party’s official insistence in supporting infanticide is a nonstarter for me.
That said, there is a sizable minority of Libertarians within the LP who are pro-life. And I suspect that the majority of those who identify themselves as libertarian but who choose to not join the LP would cite infanticide as an underlying reason. Here is a link should you wish to further educate yourself: http://www.l4l.org/
I’d rather not.
Just like the pro-life democrats. Maybe they should differentiate themselves as pro-life or small "l" libertarians, otherwise they'll be labeled as such.
Of course that still leaves the "drug addled and boy-raping" position intact. Why would anyone want to create civil rights for the "gay death-style" child molesters?
“Maybe they should differentiate themselves as pro-life or small “l” libertarians, otherwise they’ll be labeled as such.”
They do. Most libertarians on this website are very much of the small letter persuasion.
“Of course that still leaves the “drug addled and boy-raping” position intact. Why would anyone want to create civil rights for the “gay death-style” child molesters?”
Well, let’s start with “drug addled.” Not a big issue for me: I don’t use illicit drugs. I’ve never viewed it as the government’s function to prevent people from engaging in their own folly. If people want to drink a bottle of drain cleaner, then I don’t think the government’s responsibility to stop them from doing so. Perhaps they should tell them it’s a really stupid idea, but it isn’t a law enforcement issue in my view.
The more sinister aspect of drug prohibition is the excuse that it gives the government to engage in all sorts of liberty destroying actions. Like smashing down doors, seizing assets, intrusive monitoring, killing family pets, etc. All in all I favor legalization at the Federal level not because I’m all that in favor of legalization per se, but because I view it as a state’s rights question. And it removes some of the incentive/excuse for law enforcement to act in an egregious manner.
As for “boy raping”, I’m not aware of any political party that is advocating that. So I assume that what you’re talking about homosexuality. Again, it’s not something that is all that big of an issue for me: I’m not homosexual. I disagree with the push to normalize so-called gay “marriage” but have repeatedly noted that the problem, in addition to moral rot, is that Christians have anything to do with the state licensed marriage scheme. A state issued license is NOT required to be married in the religious sense. I think that Christians will do better to simply reject state licensed marriages and let the state license scheme wither away.
