1) The GOP needs to go the way of the Whigs.
2) A new party needs to rise up and oppose the Democrats.
3) IMO, the Libertarians are not a good choice for that. Most Libertarians are basically socially Liberal, and bored by fiscal matters. In other words: Democrats.

I will support candidates who are fiscally Conservative and socially Conservative. And whether I am consistent on that or not -- no matter what I do -- I do not think electoral politics matters in the foreseeable future. Nothing will change until after the war and, yeah, that's coming.

Does socially conservative mean keeping the Feds out of the social arena or continuing the usurpation of the 10th Amendment—with “conservatives” in the driver’s seat?

Under our current system, splitting a party is paramount to suicide. Continuing petty strawman politics is the same. Do you really think that the worst “big L” libertarian would have come close to approaching the disaster that has been foisted upon this country? The last 20+ years was not the fault of libertarians of any stripe...

I am not a big or little L libertarian; I am just tired of people with logs in their eyes stumbling around looking for motes. Yeah the war is coming, and when it’s here, you can tell your children how you were so worried about drug legalization. In the end, those very drugs may come in handy when you are performing surgery in your kitchen…
