I am not a Libertarian. I will never agree with you on issues related to national security, such as defense spending, the necessity for a larger military or a host of other issues.

Conservatives are not Libertarians and I think it foolish to pretend otherwise. The basic divide between a Conservative and Libertarian can never be breached in my opinion.

But lowercase libertarianism is simply the opposite of statism, and is not policy bound like the idiotic Libertarian Party platform.

I don’t care.
This isn’t a personal debate, and you can’t “win”.

I offered you the opportunity to make your case, and you can’t.

Maybe that explains how an expert on national defense and the rule of law such as yourself couldn’t avoid being “surrounded by idiots and fools”. Poor tactics?
