Libertarian Party: Campaign Finance Reform Ruling is Assault on Free Speech

Libertarian Party press release ^ | December 11, 2003 | George Getz

[Jim Robinson]

Well, perhaps people will tire of arm twisting. We'll see.

[Jim Robinson]

How many members you got signed up now?

I can't deal in "if's" --- it happened. It's called politics.

Remember, McCain and his democrat buddies controlled the Senate and they were blocking every piece of legislation or adding their CFR to every bill?

McCain was making good on his lofty promise to "his" voters and POTUS needed McCain. The Senate was 50-50 (with VP Cheneny expected to break many ties) then I think either Paul Coverdale from GA died and a dem was appointed, or Jefford's jumped sides. Either way, McCain got his way with a watered-down CFR.

Therefore, the number of SCOTUS Lefties MATTERED!

I do not want a democrat president appointing Day-O'Connor's successor, nor Stevens' nor Renhnquist's. Therefore I will vote a straight GOP ticket as I always have. To vote otherwise, is to only assist in the election of a democrat, and that is damn dangerous and flat-out foolish. In fact, I'll call that voting, anti-military and un-American.

[Jim Robinson]

Well, I hope you are wrong. But even if you've nailed 2008 perfectly, I see no reason to throw in the towel early.

Vote out as many RATS as humanly possible in 2004!!

[SUSSA]

You have more faith in them than I do.

[The_Eaglet]

How many members you got signed up now?

LOL.
None in the past couple of years. I wish I could be more involved in the political process in general although I try to do what I can.

Your CP will only serve to help elect democrats, which makes yall no better than democrats and there is nothing further to discuss.

I will pray Ralph Nader's party cancels yours and then some. It's likely they will, thank God.

[Jim Robinson]

You mean besides promoting the killing of millions of unborn babies and flaunting homosexualism in our faces while enacting their perverted agenda and cutting God out of public view while attempting to ram same-sex marriage down our throats and attempting to take our guns and at the same time giving away our national sovereignty? Just a whole bunch of minor stuff like that.

[The_Eaglet]

Your CP will only serve to help elect democrats, which makes yall no better than democrats and there is nothing further to discuss.

Since some Constitution Party members have won some local races (partisan and non-partisan), that's not necessarily the case.

[onyx]

There's always been more voters on the looney Left than the fringee's on the Right, but if Dr. Deanmento gets the nomination, we might see solidarity on the Left. Thankfully, I think Dean scares the hell out of the squishy middle.

[onyx]

US Congressional seats. Name them?

[Jim Robinson]

True. I have faith. And hope. I love freedom and I love America. I know that a lot of the politicians are not acting in good faith, but I believe we will find more of the straight shooters on the conservative side than we will on the liberal side. I pray to God that this is so.

[BigSkyFreeper]

I have a very strong feeling any one of these third parties, Nader's party included, will be casting protest votes against Bush. Mark my words. No party should be in power if all they care about is one single solitary issue. The "flavor of the month" this go around seems to be getting rid of Bush because of Iraq.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Which begs the question. Who in their right mind would vote for someone that would RAISE TAXES?! So far, Bush has yet to raise mine.

[onyx]

Iraq is an excuse. They just hate Bush. Iraq might not be such a huge issue 6 or 9 months from now.

People usually vote for or against candidates. I think Bush is worth voting for. More people like him than hate him, and there's nothing to like about Dean. Independent's for Dean? A scant few.

[The_Eaglet]

They are more local than that. :) Some candidates and election winners are listed here.

[Godebert]

" Want to make the Supreme Court and all of the federal courts more conservative? Vote out the commie-loving rat bastards! Want to leave the godless America hating Democrats on the bench, vote Rat or third party."

Wasn't Sandra Day O'Conner appointed by a Republican president? She voted to up-hold this un-Constitutional legislation signed into law by a Republican president. The same Republican president that says he supports the renewel of the ban on so-called "assault weapons". The amazing part is that GWBush even acknowledged that he understood this CFR legislation was un-Constitutional when he signed it. Do you think he just plain forgot about his sworn oath to "Protect and Defend" the Constitution of the United States of America?

I understand that you, Mr. Robinson, served in our armed forces, and took a similar oath. Do we honor our sworn oath by voting for a man that we know has already broken his own oath and disregarded his duty? Do you regard your own sworn oath as lightly as George W. Bush?

[BigSkyFreeper]

They just hate Bush. Iraq might not be such a huge issue 6 or 9 months from now.

I tell all my liberal friends this when the topic of discussion is Iraq. :)

[Jim Robinson]

Yes, I believe that is so about O'Connor. But all the same, the Democrats are guaranteed to name a baby killing, gun grabbing, UN loving, God hating homosexualist as her replacement. I'm acting on my oath and defending the Constitution by not allowing that to happen.

[Jim Robinson]

Look, why in the world would anyone in his right mind want to turn control of the government back over to the Democrats? We just threw them out of a seventy year run of flushing the country down the toilet. Doesn't make a lick of sense to hand it back to them. Are you people nuts or just plain crazy? Serious question.
