>>>If you would prefer to contemplate circle jerks...

Well, you're the libertarian standing in the circle and the circle is in public view. I'm sure you enjoy that reality.

Your inability to comprehend simple English, is astounding. I will atempt to clarify what I meant, since you're having continued difficulites.

While you see some connection between the two statements you posted, I do not. Once again, the Libertarian Party platform and the libertarian agenda are farfetched forms of political philosophy. They're impractical idealism, which offers nothing to basic American beliefs and traditional values. You're force and fraud argument is hollow.

You're [sic] force and fraud argument is hollow.

How so?

I'm ammending my former statement:
You really are an idiot.

They're impractical idealism, which offers nothing to basic American beliefs and traditional values.

From the LP's platform webpage:
As Libertarians, we seek a world of liberty; a world in which all individuals are sovereign over their own lives, and no one is forced to sacrifice his or her values for the benefit of others.

We believe that respect for individual rights is the essential precondition for a free and prosperous world, that force and fraud must be banished from human relationships, and that only through freedom can peace and prosperity be realized.

Consequently, we defend each person's right to engage in any activity that is peaceful and honest, and welcome the diversity that freedom brings. The world we seek to build is one where individuals are free to follow their own dreams in their own ways, without interference from government or any authoritarian power.

From the Constitution:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Liberty. Freedom. A more Perfect Union.

Are you sure it isn't your leaders "compassionate conservatism" that runs contrary to the foundation of freedom that this country was based upon?
