Does any one have trouble with me being a libertarian?

Posted on 07/12/2003 8:29:27 AM PDT by Dan D.Doty

I hope no one here has a problem with me being a libertarian who come to speak on free republic?

I have discovered that most of the liberal/socialist types on the internet are very unreasonable, rude, disrespectful, ignorant in their behaivor towards others who do not mirror their beliefs.

Maybe I should explain a bit more. Not all Libertarians hold the same views on every subject. Capitalism/ free market, yes. Freedom of Speech/Religion/Assumbley , a Big yes. Gun Control/ Victim Disarmament, a BIG no.
Legalized Drugs, maybe pot, but not the hard stuff.
If you have any questions, just ask.

You have just defined a liberal Republican, e.g. Chafee or Snowe. Personally, that's not how I prefer to define a libertarian. I could be wrong and in need of redefining myself. Maybe the poster could write a thesis on it :-)

Hey, I just tried this: http://www.lp.org/quiz/

Too many shades of grey. For example, is a libertarian Republican the same as a conservative Libertarian?

Ahhh jeez...

Why did you have to go and chum the water?

Haven't we been through enough of this?

Don't you think Kevin Curry and Cultural Jihad need some time off?

"Too many shades of grey." ...but then why must one be politically consistent on every issue anyway, just to adhere to the groupthink? One could be more libertarian on some issues than others, even within social or economic sub-topics.

I must say though, I am skeptical of the stated results and the implication.

We put your question:

Kewl. I got: "According to your answers, your political philosophy is right-conservative. "
I've always voted the conservative tickets.

you types seem to vary from person to person. Other than the legalization of drugs and prostitution, I like a lot of libertarians. I think you all could do a better job by not taking part in the Presidential race. Libertarians and other conservative third parties need to go after un-challenged demoncrats and the most liberal RINO's in state positions instead.

What's a Libertarian? A liberal who works in a library?

I'm with you, Brother. Government should mind their OWN business, not in OUR minds or OUR markets. The Constitution is very clear and concise, and the Republicrats ignore it all.
