And the Republicans will "globalize" all major corporations, feeding the beasts with cheap (legal and illegal) immigrant labor at home, and shipping all the jobs they can overseas.
I'm in Massachusetts, and looking to vote for Jill Stein (the Green candidate) for Governor. Why? She's the only one who answers the questions she's asked. And I'm still really, really angry about Mitt Romney's treatment of Jim Rappaport.
Gosh. All those people taken off the public teet. Hey....wait a minute.What's wrong with that?
Vote Republican? Fat chance.
This argument is getting real old...
The real question is: Who really knows what the agenda of the Republican party is?...it sure as hell hasn't been for a smaller conservative government within recent years has it? People don't vote for (LP) candidates because they WANT more Democrats in office (or simply because they want to smoke their dope..pls don't go there)...they vote for them because they want a smaller conservative goverment and people that support it as their political representatives (meaning NOT RINO's). If they have to go to (LP) to vote for that candidate...so be it.
While I realize that a (R) controlled Senate is most important come Nov (which I intended to help make happen by my vote), it can't be the endgoal...the (R)'s need to take that majority and start ACTING like conservatives and get some cajones in dealing with the liberal scum that only seek to destroy America. If they don't, in time, they will become totally irrelevant and indistinguishable from the Democrats. I don't know about you...but my patience is running short.
You'll have to admit, Demidog, that chance is better than a libertarian winning anything.
This current GOP administration is the most socialist, anti-Constitutional Republican administration in history.
This comes after the 1994 Republican "revolution" which was a pro-Constitution, anti-Clinton/socialism reaction.
That "revolution" was quenched not by Democrats but by Republicans.
The Republican Party has clearly demonstrated it will do all that is necessary to placate the anti-socialist voters whilst disempowering any true anti-socialist Representatives. They have almost completely cleaned House of the revolutionaries. Only Ron Paul remains as a pro-Constitution Republican. He has been "dutifully" isolated.
50 years of appeasement (voting the lesser of 2 evils) has made matters worse, not better.
Both parties are the problem, simultaneously. The problem is not voters who demand fidelity to the Constitution.
That people on FreeRepublic would on the one hand laud Thomas Jefferson's principles yet on the other hand criticize fellow Freepers who would uphold those principles is sheer hypocrisy, and folly to boot.
"Were parties here divided merely by a greediness for office,...to take a part with either would be unworthy of a reasonable or moral man." --Thomas Jefferson to William Branch Giles, 1795. ME 9:317
Ummmmm. Really? That's what happens, anyway. Wouldn't they have noticed that by now?
I won't have to admit any such thing. There are over 300 libertarians in office.
Unless we get the full backing of all right wingers, that'll never happen. Repubs need to stay in control long enough to make it happen. Fighting off thouchie feelie Marxist propaganda isn't easy.
That you are concerned about how a libertarian may vote is ample proof that they are not irrelevant.
Funny...If people thought along those line in the 1860's Lincoln would've never been president.
5.56mm
I had no idea. Republicans need to fix that. As long as that number exists, Republicans are losing votes,and Democrats win.
We need to stop that movement from getting any stronger. It doesn't help at all.
No...libertarians win as evidenced by libertarian victories.
Dear Ben,
Why does your party deserve any Libertarian support
while Ashcroft is allowed to run roughshod over the
Tenth Amendment? Would it be so unheard of
for the party to make a gesture of support towards
some amendment other than the second? It need
not be such a small tent. Move a little in the
direction of third parties and rake in the votes.
Moving wholeheartedly towards the left
and the democratic issues seems to be no
problem. Why the refusal to court independent
and libertarian votes?
Puzzled.
You:Gosh. All those people taken off the public teet. Hey....wait a minute.What's wrong with that?
For US workers, it means less income and more negative impact on our culture and security.
When has the republican party ever suppported the second amendment?
