Libertarians are radical leftists that would be lynched in 1800 America if they tried to sell their anti-God, pro-homosexual, pro-porn etc. nonsense.

Here is the leftists agenda hidden behind the Libertarian Party curtain.

Libertarian Party Platform:

Throw open the borders completely; only a rare individual (terrorist, disease carrier etc.) can be kept from freedom of movement through “political boundaries”.

Homosexuals; total freedom in the military, gay marriage, adoption, child custody and everything else.

Abortion; zero restrictions or impediments.

Pornography; no restraint, no restrictions.

Drugs; Meth, Heroin, Crack, and anything new that science can come up with, zero restrictions.

Advertising those drugs, prostitution, and pornography; zero restrictions.

Military Strength; minimal capabilities.

Here is the leftists agenda hidden behind the Libertarian Party curtain.

Anytime someone claims to be able to declare someone else's position, it is much more credible if an authoritative source - recognized by that other party - is provided. So the rest of your statement is suspect, at least.

However, I didn't claim that the libertarian philosophy I described in my note is aligned with the current "Libertarian Party." I find that party position to be too far toward anarchy - even for the tradition of that philosophy. However, I think that Jefferson's declaration of, "That government is best which governs least," is a good starting point. It can, like any other position, be taken to extremes and lose it's value.

As another caution, declaring that "Libertarians are radical leftists . . ." smacks entirely too much of the immediate namecalling and 'extremist' label that the current liberals/progressives/statists/socialists/liars do. I wouldn't leap to that namecalling if for no other reason than to keep my distance from that type of repugnant behavior.

Nonetheless, I don't support the Libertarian Party. As I said, I'm a Constitutionalist. And I don't think the current right/left, liberal/conservative labels mean anything. The anti-socialist nature of libertarianism, for example, is hardly 'leftist' by today's typical (and misused) labels.

The bottom line is whether I would try to find common cause with fiscal 'conservatives' if the alternative was continued power for the Democrat party. Answer: In a heartbeat.
