Puke is correct
There isn’t a Barf Alert in the world strong enough to prepare one for this mindless spew.
Once I saw the author’s ugly mug, I bolted.
The world is full of idiots and fools.
So heartless.
'The Republican convention didnt turn me off of libertarians, but I started losing respect for the movement while watching the financial meltdown. Libertarians were (rightly) furious when our government bailed out the banks, but they fought hardest against help for ordinary Americans. They hated unemployment insurance and reduced school lunches. I used to say similar things, but in such a catastrophic recession isnt the government supposed to help? Isnt that the lesson of the Great Depression?'

“He became a Democrat because, in his words, I began to think about real people, like my neighbors and people less lucky than me. Did I want those people to starve to death? I care about children, even poor ones.”
Goo... you need to be careful.... Lots of libs here... This is STILL a Conservative site, although JimRob has tolerated Libs for awhile...
and, a LIB is a LIB... no matter HOW you put it..

How could anyone go from thinking that government should have as little to do with our daily lives as possible to embrace the notion that big government and liberal elites should control even the most mundane aspects of people’s lives because they are too stupid to make the right decisions?
“but extreme selfishness is just so isolating and cruel”
This should be the new leftist slogan.
Because dying among friends in the Khmer Rouge way is much more comforting!
This clown’s got some real issues. 5 kids and a “gd liberal” wife and he embraces this:
I began to think about real people, like my neighbors and people less lucky than me. Did I want those people to starve to death? I care about children, even poor ones. I love the National Park system. The best parts of the America I love are our communities. My libertarian friends might call me a fucking commie (they have) or a pussy, but extreme selfishness is just so isolating and cruel. Libertarianism is unnatural, and the size of the federal government is almost irrelevant. The real question is: what does society need and how do we pay for it?
A month before the 2012 election, I changed my party affiliation to Democrat. I am a very late bloomer, that it took me so many decades to develop my own values. I was thirty-nine.
“the size of the federal govt is almost irrelevant”? Hey Chump, you ever heard of something called The Constitution? You see people voting with their feet, from your beloved Blue to Red? You see the craphole public school systems run by your comrades? How’s that Great Society done after 4+ decades?
39 yrs old and he goes back to school for “Creative Writing” Wow, what a man, what a provider
Oh btw, I’ve heard of plenty of my liberal pals make racist statements (after looking around the room first). And they sure wouldn’t give up their jobs or admissions in the name of “Diversity” I’m sure you wouldn’t either, nor let some poor oppressed SOB take one of your Lil Darlin’s spots at prep school or U.
You wouldn’t know “real values” if it hit you in the face. Take a leisurely trip to N Korea or Cuba and let us know how that works out for you.
Why I vote liberal:
1) I have brain damage.
2) I died and the guy in my precinct is stuffing the ballot.
3) I’m homeless and being bribed with cigarettes.
4) I’m illegal and they said something about giving me welfare.
5) I’m a fictional character and liberalism works in my world.
6) I’m crazy and the guy busing me to the polling place told me to pull the lever with the donkey.
This idiot is not a libertarian. He is a Ron Paul supporter and Ron Paul delegate. He likes Ron Paul supporters because they are pro gay, pro drugs, etc. But he concluded they were in his own words “nuts”.
This idiot Ron Paul delegate appears to have never held a job. After supporting Ron Paul in the primary he concluded the Ron Paul delegates were too crazy even for him. A Ron Paul organizer in charge of the group referred to Ron Paul delegates as “clowns”.
After supporting Ron Paul in the Republican primary he changed his registration to Democrat and became an Obama supporter.
This whiny brat has never done anything useful in his life. He has no understanding of what he is supposed to be talking about. He is a typical Ron Paul delegate.
From the frying pan to the fire!
In the end, however, he was able to dress up this conversion in some moralistic garb...
A “Fair-Weather Libertarian”, I have known many they understand the concept of “leave me alone” but only when it suits other people meddling with them and not the other way around...
Self check: yep, I still want people to starve to death.
Guess I’m a cartoon conservative in Libworld.
When you believe in nothing you can believe in anything..
Then going from libertarian to socialist is not a great leap..
-OR- vice versa...
