Libertarian Harry Browne: Bush Did Not Liberate Iraq

, the LP's position would be akin to one shrugging it's shoulders

Not 'akin' nit literally

Harry Browne should do the right thing, and that right thing is called seppuku.

Gee, reading this drivel, you'd think we were at WAR or something!

Coward Dean for President on the moral-liberal L.P. ticket in 2004! ;-)

Anyway, all the above proves is that the Libertarian Party is not for serious people. It peaked in 1980 with about a million votes - and its been downhill ever since, which is a good thing.

Yeah, the Republocrat welfare/warfare state is much better than liberty.

And to think that at one time I considered myself a Libertarian. What was I thinking?!

Harry Browne is a putz who's sole reason for existing is to make Libertarians look foolish.

There's nothing wrong with so-called 'safety nets' although personal responsibility is even better, and laws which encourage personal responsibility and which discourage personal irresponsibility are all fine.

So, who is the Libertarian candidate President?

Why is this crap continually allowed on here?

So those of us who can actually think can be exposed to the loony tunes cogitations. The same kind of loony tunes who backed Perot and refuse still to admit they helped elect Billy Bolshevik twice.

So, who is the Libertarian candidate President?

If you want predictions: Ralph Nader.

ditto.

I am personally libertarian, morally conservative. There is a divulgence in the LP.

Some don't even want Neal Boortz to speak at the LP Convention in Atlanta. Fools.

Mohammad: How exactly, will leaving Saddam in power, promote peace and justice in Iraq?

Andrea: Um, again, what i need to say is that...

Mohammad:No, now you are obfuscating...

Andrea: regime change, listen...

Mohammad: How exactly, will leaving Saddam...

Andrea: regime change, regime change is the issue for the Iraqi people. How will bomb...How will bombing Iraq help bring peace and justice in bombing thousands of people and killing thousands of innocent people.

Mohammad: I will explain it to you if you like me to answer your question since you are choosing not to answer mine.

Host: Okay, let him ...let him explain Let Mohammad explain how bombing will work...

Mohammad: Since you are choosing...Since you are chosing to play pingpong and not answer my question, little girl. I will answer yours. There will be civilian deaths in the war. Saddam has killed 2 million people. There are families here in this country who lost 20 or 30 people on one day in a gas attack by Saddam Hussein. Little girl. And I will tell you this, yes, civilians will die, my cousins will die. Maybe, Allah forbid. But here is a certainty that you do not understand in your simplistic nickleodeon diplomacy is that you are guaranteed to have civilians die under Saddam. So now you try again to answer my question without playing the pingpong. How does leaving Saddam in power promote peace and justice in Iraq?

A: I mean, I guess what folks who listen to this show are saying or here are calling in or saying...
M: I'm not asking what folks listening to this show say...
A: ...you know...
M: ...can you answer the question, little girl.
A: ...huhuhuhu...
M: Oh now you laugh at people dying...
A: Well, no what I'm,...
M: ...you are unable to answer the question...
A: ...what I'm laughing at is that is seems like you need to um, personally attack me to make your point.
M: I do not want advice from you, I'm not giving you advice...
A:...so what what I want to say...
H: well, I I have I have I hav... Here well Mohammad Mohammad, let me le me pose this way Andrea, I have the feeling that if you just answer his question he'll be happy...
A: ...huhuhu...
H: ..and I'm by the way, I'm not abated by your laughter
M: you know, is that laughter in the background?
A: you know what I believe is ... that bombing and killing people is not gonna bring peace and justice...
M: You cannot answer the question, you are a joke. You are a joke you cannot answer the question...
A: ...what what I also believe is that there are other alternatives if we can pursue..
M: You who cannot answer the question, you are a joke. You are a joke. I would give you one more chance and then I never listen to another word you say again, you chirping bird.
A: ...okay, and I just want to say although you are um.
H: How How How How will promoting peace and How can you promote peace and justice without removing Saddam, thats his question its real simple Andrea.
A: ...and when I'm...huhuhu...
H: you are not... hahaha
M: listen to the laughter of this little bird who justifies herself...
A: You guys...
H: hey... I... I dont I don't see why its so hard, Andrea.
A: I don't think...I don't think that you know calling somebody a little bird is gonna help address the serious question that millions of people are worried about...
M: ...you have not heard the serious questions.
A: ...millions of people are worred about the consequences of a war. Okay, millions of people are worried about..
M: ... No I'm not okay with you not answering the question
A: ...bombing bombing and killing many people and millions of people are worried about increasing security threats to people in the United States if we go to war, and additionally I don't um..
H: Sure Sure Sure I We We're We're We're retreading the same territory, the the the yeah we're retreading but you're not you're not...
M: ...bustering little girl
A: ...huhuhu...
H: You're you're not answering the question. Andrea, Andrea, Andrea you can continue to petulantly ... gale in laughter but you have to admit you are not answering his question
A: Well...I'm I'm I'm laughing at him calling me a little girl and I think that you guys ...
H: Well, you're coming off, you're coming off like my 9 year old niece.
A: The only it seems like the only focus we can have here is Saddam Hussein and the fact is that Iraqi are...
M: That is the focus of the war. Do you understand one thing about anything? That is the focus of the war.
A: ...the people who are gonna be killed in this bombing campaign. And what I said is war is that there are alternatives.
H: Cure..Cure...Curiously Andrea, you're, yeah, alright but curiously you are talking to a guy from Iraq and you are telling him that peace and justice will somehow remove the guy that is the reaosn he had to emigrate here. Is that what you are saying?
A: What i'm saying is that...
M: Now she repeats herself again.
A: ...if we pursue peace and justice for the Iraqi people through international law, through diplomacy...
M: International law has failed, Andrea.
A: ...through pressure, through various um, different initiatives, if we can pursue them in North Korea if we can pursue them in Israel and Palestine and all over the world we can pursue them in Iraq.
M: And can I say one more thing before I hang..
A: ...and I also... and..
H: Oh and absolute...No no no Andrea, Mohammad has to go he's a caller, he gets to go you have been on for for 45 minutes. Go ahead go ahead, Mohammad go ahead
M: If you.. If you personally end up going to the gulf, Allah will bless you because Saddam is a pretend muslim and everybody knows this. And for the listeners who hear this girl and she thinks I insult her with the term. I do not insult her, being a little girl is natural, we all start out children and we learn and grow. But she has no point lecturing me on what will happen in Iraq or lecturing you. This why this so called peace movement, they cannot even justify their own name. And i will remind you, if they leave Saddam in power they guarrantee death if he is removed there will be some, but for a short time, and the Iraqi people are ready and they will welcome the Americans, including if Allah forbid Brian ah Suits goes. So Andrea do not take it as being an insult that you are a little girl, you are simply not ready for the adult world. Thank you Brian.
H: Ah. Thank you Mohammad, what he's refering to Andrea is that tomor.. tomorrow night is my final night here at KVI, my , I I'm being called up by the Army National Guard I was in the first Desert Storm I pray to God I'm not in the second one I just wonder as I say in 10 years will people shake my hand and say thanks for my freedom or will they shake your hand, neither you nor I know.

.........laws which encourage personal responsibility and which discourage personal irresponsibility are all fine. Oxymoron alert!

So the Libertarian position is that personal irresponsibility is some kind of right? No wonder their shabby political product is regularly ignored by the electorate.

If they lose Boortze...I am laughing so hard. He is soooo proud of being Libertarian.

I believe you took a wrong turn!

Smurfville is over at DU now.........They are also giving away free tinfoil hats for new members. (I thought that would interest you)

Ah, yes!

"I never listen to another word you say again, you chirping bird."

There's nothing wrong with so-called 'safety nets'

Stealing is alright, if enough people agree with it. This is the fundamental tenet of democracy, and why it is forever at odds with individual rights.

lol......fringe nonsense from a fringe party. Actually, the LP used to be a fringe party. Now they're too irrelevant for even that designation.
