Well, you have just overwhelmed me with your handling of the English language. I'll just have to bow to your superior use of snappy phrases.

I don't know what the hell a "constitutionalist" is beyond some self-aggrandizing, meaningless, smug label to make a few damned mal-contents feel superior when they can't put two words together to define what the hell they mean by it.

Does the widdow Constitutionalist claim that speeding tickets are a 'Constitutional crisis' and that Arlington National Cemetery is a 'socialist enterprise'? Then no. They are ideologue loons, and can offer nothing to conservatism but disruption.

Will there be photos?

 

Oh I hope not, after running into KneelbeforeZod's pics on the HTML thread, I've had enough of them lately.

Man, I spend 6 hours in the tattoist's chair tonite and come home and find out I missed out on a good catfight.  Somebody needs to let me know the schedule for these things.

Now, now, I was once a libertarian sort of, maybe libertarian lite I guess. I was quite agreeable back then, before I became a mean old predatory lawyer. I was a parasite though, because daddy was paying for my education, and he did it for a very loooong time, bless him.

Harrowup describes himself as a "liberal that likes Bush". Now, I am assuming he means the president.

"Nope, we can't say anything against Republican support of the drug war."

There are at least 3 threads per day doing that very thing. So you are a liar.

*************************

I don't lie, Texasforever.

You don't see threads criticizing Republican President Bush's support of official murder under the cover of the drug "war," like you did when Clinton was President.

What you see are a lot of Freepers being very careful to avoid any actual charges of crimes committed by any specific Republican, while stating in a general way that "the government" shouldn't be killing and abusing citizens.

Libertarianism by nature adheres to humanist moral-liberalism. They have more in common with the Greens Party, the DNC, or the Trotskyite Spartacist League than they do with the Republican Party.

You're right about that, because the Repubs have much more in common with Dems than they do with conservatives.

I belive it was that great philosopher Cheech Marin that so wisely uttered, "Man, pot should not be legal...it should be mandatory".

I think he parks his hookah over at Liberty Post.

BTW, some faithful FReepers might find it interesting to know what the average number of posts are to each thread on about a half dozen topics at Liberty Post:

Judicial . 5 (one month of threads)

Health & Science 3 . 7 (one month of threads)

News & Current Events 4 . 9 (one month of threads)

Crime & Corruption 6 . 4 (one month of threads)

Constitution & Law 8 .2 (one month of theads)

Drugs & Dope 17 . 3 (one month of threads)

Anti-FReeping 150 (one week of threads)

* * * *

I'll leave it to others to draw conclusions from these data.

Torie, the Libertarians here demand all their personal rights, and acknowledge no reciprocal communal responsibilty. That doesn't play in my world. It never will.

The old texas gungrabber speaks.

Your stance on our 2nd amendment makes YOU the village idiot at FR, tex.
Hard to believe you can pass yourself off as a conservative, -- till we look closely at the politics of your cultist buddies here, -- that is.
