Excellent....I agree, Lincoln (Change his name to Benedict) Chafee, is even more horrible then his late Father.
Pro-Life Policies Quashed (How RINO Ralph Regula Killed Effort to Defund Planned Parenhood)
Well, Lady GOP, we know where Chafee Sr. is burning...and it ain't heaven!
Sorry, Governor Ryan of Illinois beats out McCain by a mile. At least McCain PRETENDS to a Republican. When McCain was casting a token vote to remove Clinton, Governor Ryan was out defending Bubba. When McCain was voting to pan partial-birth abortion, Ryan was vetoing a bill that would have ended funding for it. When McCain was sending out mail denying he had a rift with George Bush, Ryan was gloating that he hoped the "hard right" of "his" party would LOSE.
Hell, Ryan's so far to left, he probably thinks Dasshole is conservative.
Yeah, that's Absolutist Libertarianism and not what I consider libertarianism. A concept I do believe would sell with the Sheeple is Federal Libertarianism, in which even the speed limit concept you eschew in yer example would suffice against an argument for Federally-mandated speed limits. If the States or Localities want to mandate said limits, they can argue it out amongst themselves, but the Feds have no say in the matter whatsoever!! For instance, I was in Montana for a wedding a coupla years ago and the speed limit outside of City Limits was something like "Safe and Reasonable" or "Reasonable and Prudent," meaning in essence that if you wrecked or were seen outta control, you got a ticket for speeding, otherwise you could drive as fast as you wanted and nobody messed with you.
Of course, Federal Libertarianism is also known as Constitutionalism, which our Founding Fathers wisely put into place, but our SCOTUS has gradually allowed to be eroded.

Time for a FREEP of this Rino! Enough is enough! Let's Roll IM2!
The first step in accomplishing a worthy deed is believing said deed CAN be accomplished.

Couldn't disagree more, my FRiend...Larry Kudlow said it best when he told Limbaugh, "George W. Bush is the Conservative Mole within his own Administration."
"Every single one of his kneejerks has been a socialist knee jerk. We must have been watching two different Geedubs, you and I."
Apparently so...I think you have Dubyuh mixed up with his Milquetoast Moderate Daddy.
"Since Reagan left office, there has been a steady culling of the ranks of conservatives. I'm not talking about the rank and file, though the number of conservative spear carriers has been dwindling since '96. Face it. The GOP's conservative element is done for. The leadership's brief flirtation with conservatism ended when Reagan left office."
You may be willing to take yer ball and go home whining that you just ain't got what it takes to fight the RINOs, but I prefer to stay and fight the good fight. RINOs count you amongst their biggest allies when you spew nonsense like that...whatever. Enjoy the Inconsequential Wilderness of ThirdPartyism, my FRiend...I'll continue to check in with y'all and let you know what's going on up here on the front line of the CounterCounterCulture War.
