i strongly second that. libertarians will side with the left on all social issues and that is the MAJOR area of conflict in the US today. that's what's tearing the country down. the sole concern of libertarians that i see is that they want to hold on to their money as tightly as possible and make as much of it as possible. like the left, they show little interest in the welfare of society in general or indeed in much of anything other than their own specific, particular cases. materialism indeed.

This is just exactly the nonsense that sets the Republican party back. The welfare of our society is directly proportional to the freedom we are allowed to possess. Why should you be able to claim economic freedom, if you do not allow people to claim personal freedom.

It is the joy that so many "conservatives" take in snuffing out everything they think is strange, freaky or weird that makes otherwise amiable people to the conservative moment go run in hide.

You social "conservatives" are nothing more than Marxists who believe in god.

In case you haven't read any of the writings of the founders of this, the greatest nation in history, it was founded to secure the blessing of liberty, not to be bridled by the yoke of yet another tyranny.

I will always err on the side of personal liberty. And in the Shiavo case, her personal liberty is being spit upon because it is more convenient to the soft sensibilities of people to think of her as a thing as opposed to a person.

Well said.

Democrats want dominion over my wallet.
Republicans want dominion over my soul, and lately, my wallet, too.

Neither major political party gives a rat's ass about liberty.

No one has any written copy of her opinion, and if she is killed, she won't have ANY personal liberty to be spit upon because she will be dead and when your dead .... you don't have squat! Soooo don't let her be killed. KISS
