"tpaine is simply one of the most straight talking principled libertarians around. He and I are probably very close in age and neither of us tolerates blowhards. I suspect if you've run crossways with tom, he probably gave you a good licking. Never-the-less, he still hasn't taught you to choke on your own hypocrisy...yet..."

"principled libertarians"
Now!!! That's an oxymoron if I've ever seen one

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

Actually it's a true statement. A libertarian would never support a liberal candidate.

The same can't be said about Republicans. Republicans will support anyone who claims the title "Republican," even if they are liberal.

As Jim Robinson said earlier today, "...what I am after for the coming years is to elect as many Republicans as possible, especially conservative Republicans..."

A libertarian doesn't say "especially conservative..."

A libertarian just says "I'm going to vote for a conservative."

I am a consevative, I am a libertarian, and I will never vote for a liberal.

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.

Libertarians are NOT conservative, they have NEVER been conservative. Libertarians are liberals that don't want to pay for the mess they create i.e. SELFISH LIBERALS.
