The lack of answers to it stuck out like a sore thumb. I noticed the anti-libertarians ran from that question like rats from a sinking ship.
So, am I to understand that you agree with us in prinicple, but not in practice, because liberals wouldn't agree to go along with it?
The point I was trying to make was that you need to be strong in order to win. A principle is only worth anything if it's practicable, and the only principles that are practicable are those of the winners. I was saying that, in my opinion, Conservatives are the most likely to be the ultimate winners. This opinion is based on the fact of the United States having become the strongest nation in the world by adhering to Conservative principles.
Liberals have won ground because they promise the weak to protect them. We need to win this ground back by revealing the Libs for the frauds they are. It will be an uphill battle, as they have gained control of most of the media.
It's an interesting experience to go back to reading "conventional media" after reading FR. Especially after reading threads about Libertarianism. Everyone agrees about the need for limited government, for minimizing taxes, and so on--no matter which side you are on. After this, listening to a Liberal seems like listening to a radical idiot. Not only seems, is, but to non-Freepers, it sounds like mainstream opinion. Perhaps it would be a good idea to take this Libertarian-Conservative debate out to the popular media?
