in many ways, the Libertarians are really basically nothing more than Green Party members without the taxes.

That's a pretty broad brush you're painting with. It certainly doesn't describe me. But I will say that the name "libertarian" has now been twisted beyond all meaning or usefulness. Credit Bill Maher for delivering the death blow.

There certainly are well-meaning conservatives who call themselves libertarians. But at its essential core the libertarian movement is animated--dominated--by a foul, Godless, and reckless spirit that has nothing in common with traditional conervatism, and which would utterly destroy this nation if allowed to.

You would do well to wake up and distance yourself from the libertarian movement. The spirit that controls it secretly detests you and is only using you.

Not the first time this has occurred. Marxists took the term "Liberal Democrat" and made it into exactly the opposite of its classical meaning. Bill Maher is only the advance guard. Eventually the left will own the libertarian movement.

The hardcore libertarians don't recognize standards. They think you are the enemy for not allowing hookers to walk down family neighborhoods looking for tricks. They believe that is infringement upon the individual and in essence "communust." Don't believe me? Hardcore libertarianism speaks for itself.

I'll give credit to where credit is due - the Libertarians themselves. Not all of them. But I've seen and dealt with a number of nutzoids on FR that makes me think they
Can't Understand Normal Thinking.
