DU discusses libertarianism. I thought some of you might find this interesting:
But that's more to embarrass candidates than to convince anyone. One-on-one I emphasize rape to women, gay-bashing to gays, robbery to taxi drivers, and generally try to appeal to self-interest and dignity. The thing I find hardest is countering 'facts' that aren't true. Their propaganda IS effective!
David Horowitz would agree with you. Radical Son
I do too. I find a distinct difference between liberal politicians, such as Daschle and Gephardt, and the rank and file, such as many over at the DU. The liberal politicians are outright deceivers. The rank and file come across as misguided/wrongheaded.
So will you tell Dane et al that I'm not really a libertatian? Of course you would have to lie. Like I care...
That's libelous; almost all libertarians recognize an attack on the US and want to retaliate.
and allow abortion of demand while being "personally" against it (a favorite of "moderate" Democrats). .. And Republicans
abolish the "racist" death penalty
Another libel; Those libertarians who are against it generally don't trust the gov't enough to allow it to take such drastic action. Next you'll be trying to convince people that the LP organized "Free Jumia" (sp) rallies!
end the "racist" war on drugs (this was a favorite of George McGovern
I don't remember that, you sure it wasn't just legalizing MJ?
Your thread has got me because it is a system of beliefs that can bring opposing views together ie: locally fund what you support. As Liberals we belive that the majority feel as we do and want to help thier fellow man. Therefore there should be enough people in the community to help those who need it and not "depend" on the government to do these things (my big problem - all talk no action - that's what the government is for - for someone so liberal I have not actually helped that many people - except paying taxes that is).
Or maybe this guy is just a "double agent" pretending to see the light.
ROTFLMAO, so sorry I missed your post before! I think a Tire-Iron should be acceptable when countering socialists, considering they've got the media on their side.
You mean "Mumoo JaBooBoo Cop Killer"? Fry the worthless SOB! He doesn't rate the bag of Frito's we have to feed his worthless ass every day, not to mention that glass of water the guards have to bring him.
Dissent will not be tolerated, for the sake of diversity.
If you can fight through it, you do learn why the LP gets less than 1%.
Hey! Don't you know that it's not what you put in your mouth that makes you filthy, it's what comes OUT of your mouth, because out of your mouth flows the abundance of your heart. The words that flow out of your mouth are a reflection of your heart and mind. These are the things that truly defile a man.
tpaine and I constantly talk of liberty and freedom; Kevin constantly talks of evil deeds. Jesus said that one's words reveal one's heart. Poor Kevin.
I trust whatever intelligence Dane has gathered and added to his porfolio on you. Must of you libertarians need to be kept an eye on. He seems to be your guardian angel that keeps you from making too much of an ass out of yourself.
Too bad yours never showed up for work.
