Former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson announced today that he's running for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination.
"I'm ready for a different America," Johnson said in a statement today. "I'm ready for the day when a person can build a good life on a decent income, and we can take our government at its word."
Johnson announced his candidacy Thursday morning on the steps of the New Hampshire State House and plans to spend three days in the early-nominating state meeting with supporters and visiting local businesses.
That’s certainly not the America I’m ready for! No thanks, Mr. Johnson.
I would just love to hear a President give the speech Gary gave at the end of ‘Team America’:
“We’re d-—s! We’re reckless, arrogant, stupid d-—s. And the Film Actors Guild are pussies. And Kim Jong Il is an a-hole....”
He was a pretty decent Governor in NM.
That boy can drink some free booze....
Levin would put him above Trump on his presidential preference list.
How about Gabby Johnson?

Not interested. He’s pro-abortion. I’m never going to vote for a pro-abortion candidate.
Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin are the only ones I’m interested in voting for. And as much as I like Palin, I really don’t think she’s got much of a shot. But if she’s running, I’m gonna vote for her. I’m concerned that Bachmann would vote to permit abortion in cases of rape and incest. So if she and Palin run against each other in the primary, I’ll go with Palin.
The reason is this: Except as a step toward a total ban on abortion, it makes no sense to permit it in cases of rape and incest. If the fetus is a human child and has a right to life, then the circumstances of his/her conception, as tragic as they may be, are no reason to kill him/her. You don’t punish the child for the father’s crime.
I’m suspicious of any politician who would vote to permit abortion under any circumstances. Let’s face it. The only justification for banning abortion is that the fetus is an innocent human being. And if that’s the case, then there is no justification at all for killing him/her. And if you think there is any circumstance that justifies the intentional killing of a human being, then I don’t want you in any political office whatsoever, no matter what your positions are on homosexual marriage, the economy, the military, or anything else.
So... I like Bachmann, but this flaw would prevent me from voting for her over a more pro-life candidate.

Okay - you said you’d never vote for a pro-abortion candidate.
What would you do if it’s Gary Johnson or some other pro-abortion candidate against Obama?
If you don’t vote at all because the R is pro-abortion aren’t you then helping to elect the worse evil?
Thailand?
China, maybe, although that's in dispute.
He’ll be the GOP’s version of Mike Gravel.
In 2008 he endorsed Ron Paul.
What the Hell is wrong with you two imbeciles?
I figured I have this response from a few FReepers.
Grow up, get a grip and move on.
You do conservatism a disservice with your hideous rhetoric.
In a separate, but related story, Jar Jar Binks has announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for President.
Not a surprise... I was anticipating this.
Worst kept secret in the Southwest.
What exactly does “abortion” mean, if not the killing of a child?
Why can’t you handle clear speaking?
Hideous? I am an angel compared to your angry self.
There is NO difference in killing LIVE children no matter
their age or their location...playground or uterus.
Sorry you intentionally misunderstood me. have a good day.

I've been down this road so many times in my life, and always voted for the "lesser of two evils." And where has it gotten us? The "lesser of two evils" is still evil. I'm done with that logic.
From now on I'm voting for the person I want to be president, whether that person has a chance of winning or not. And I know a lot of pro-lifers who feel the same way. When the Republicans had the House, the Senate, and the White House, all at the same time, and could have done something really significant for the pro-life cause, what did they do? Nothing. I've been their wh*re for too long.
I don't have too many presidential elections left, and from now on I'm gonna vote the way I believe is right. And if I'm the only person who votes that way, so be it. And if the Republicans ever want me to vote for them again, they'd better figure it out that if pro-lifers are going to put them in office, they'd better do something pro-life while they're in there.
Republican, Democrat, Independent, Green, Red, or Purple, if you don't understand that there is never a justification for intentionally killing an innocent human being, whatever that person's age or stage in life, then while we may appear to agree on certain issues like gay marriage, the economy, etc., it's only a facade. You have no principles at all, and compromise on anything if the "need" arises.
Let's face it... Chances that we'll ever get to vote for any candidate that would represent us 100% the way we want to be represented are nil. Ultimately we vote for someone because we believe that at some fundamental level, they're going to base their votes on the same values we have, even if we might come to a different conclusion. I don't share any fundamental values with anyone who thinks that it's ever OK to intentionally kill an innocent child.
LOL! True.
