Lefties that for some reason decided the DNC no longer was their piece of cake...have been attracted to the party that says, in effect, "Leave me alone, I'll leave you alone". Which of course sounds great in debating circles, but is clearly ridiculous in a large society that must be governed in some form or fashion.
The poster child for libertarians is...Ramsey Clark. A man whose civil libertarian views would put this world into a war faster than you could say S-A-D-D-A-M. Evil exists in the world, even though libertarians deny that it does.
Warm milk. Thats the best anaology I can draw when thinking of libertarians and their senseless ideology.
All the proof one needs when trying to decide whether or not libertarians are freaks in the political world...is the Impeachment/Removal vote of William Jefferson Clinton. When the US Constitution was flagrantly being violated by his administration...only the GOP came to the defense of that document. Did these Libs who claim to honor our Constitution come to its rescue? No they did not.
The Libertarian Party and all of its members remained in the background and did nothing to protect our Constitution and Bill of Rights from a man who violated nearly every aspect of that Constitution. They remained as silent as termites in the wall, planning more destruction.
When they now claim that they want their 'rights protected', I ask them - from whom? Yourselves?
You haven't lived until you've heard their hare-brained scheme of substituting law for some 'Shun List.' If you don't like the fact that your neighbor is having marital relations with a horse, then lo! just add him to the bestial shun list, and that'll teach him how much you despise his being cruel to himself or to others! Of course we'd all have to check the shun list whenever we meet or deal with any individual. And of course there's never an explanation on who will maintain the shun list or how much of a bribe it would take to add or remove someone.
In short, libertarianism is an ideology, and we have seen the terrible results over the past 40 years whenever these ideology-oriented people get into power. Their religion is their ideology. They see the world colored by the glasses of their ideology and hence they do not see Reality, and hence all their schemes are doomed to failure and we all have to suffer as a result.
