First time I’ve ever seen Jim Zot trolls live on-screen. Impressive.
Zot!!
Splat!
In what actual CP document (name date, etc) were these Communist goals published (and know the Naked Communist is good enough)? Give us a citation to the original CP document he “quoted” from.
“Libertarianism is merely the ultra kook fringe of leftism.”
You have no idea what a Libertarian is. They are strict Constitutionalist that believe moral issue is the choice of the individual and not to be supported with any tax money. So if someone decides to become a alcoholic, I do not have to hire him, I have a right to fire him, I don’t have to pay for his treatment through taxes or increase in my health insurance cost. Alcoholism his problem and he must take responsibility for it.
Worthy of another post....thanks...great wordage!
Clever analogy. I guess I will give in to your logic and go the route of cleaning the garage and simultaneously mowing the lawn. Or is that not a deadly enough analogy? Pick only one of your kids?
The primary reason the Tea Party has been so successful is it has avoided social issues altogether. Social issues are the single greatest dividing issue among conservatives. We should stay focused and avoid those arguments until we get our government under control.
Fiscal policy is a science not an opinion or moral position. Numbers are numbers and we can all agree the numbers are way out of line. SoCons need to put their “issues” on the back burner until we can purge our government of progressives and get our financial future back on track. Otherwise we’ll be fighting a multi-front war of which we will NOT win. Stay focused and keep up the momentum, the left will try and side track us with these social issues to dilute the sound argument that government is out of control, which leads to THEIR social agenda.
Communist Goals (1963) Congressional Record--Appendix, pp. A34-A35 January 10, 1963
BS. There was a thread not long ago with an article from the Official Libertarian Party website with the Official Libertarian Party Agenda in detail.
“Gays” in the military.
“Gay” marriage.
“Gay” everything else.
Legal abortion.
Legalized all drugs.
Legal porn without restriction.
IOW, forcing leftist social crap on everyone whether they want it legal or not.
Libertarianism is yet another utopian fantasy pipe dream in a long line of similar utopian fanatasy pipe dreams. None have ever worked, and none ever will.
IATDZ (in after the double zot)
Well said. Prepare to have your intelligence, patriotism, and motives attacked.
Social liberalism costs money. Fight both social and fiscal liberalism or lose.
Too late. Both snakes struck while you mused over your answer and took no action.
RIP.
Libertarians vote and likely vote in large numbers, they are typically well versed in the issues. What sort of fight did you have in mind? Milton Friedman described himself as a libertarian with a small “L” but voted Republican out of necessity. Most libertarians would probably describe themselves the same way.
The problem is that social liberals will NOT put their issues on the back burner. The entire democrat party is made up of single issue candidates, most of which are social issues. They will not give up their single issue for the sake of fiscal conservatism. Halting liberalism on one front while giving ground on the other is a very dangerous strategy. It plays right into Margret Thatcher's Ratchet Theory.
Sorry, guys, but you abandon LIFE, I abandon YOU!
This is a line I WILL NOT cross. No way, no how.
I check the candidates positions, and if they aren’t clear on this issue or dance around it, they don’t get my vote. Period.
I am NOT going to one day look in the eyes of my Lord and say, “You know, I knew he was all for slaughtering unborn babies, but I was more concerned with my taxes.” UGH.
Fortunately, I have noticed that most candidates that are fiscally conservative tend also to be pro-life.
Or get a zot.
One more time: FR's God-given Life & Liberty constitutional conservative activism agenda!!
But not all at once. Each must be attacked serially, in certain order, only after divining which strategy will offend the fewest number of liberals.
Hey troll, I don’t about their “gay” agenda. All know is two gay guys that I have had done business with for over twenty years and they are just as piss as you are over the nanny state.
Do you believe that they have less Constitutional rights then you do?
The sole result of people voting libertarian (in the low single digit percentages, not exactly “large”) is that they make it so Republicans lose to Dems.
The LP agenda is described partially above, as it was posted on FR not long ago. The LP is the ultra ultra kook wingnut fringe of the left.
