Screw Bush, he was jerk but at the end of the day he was just a puppet too.
You are in the midst of a conservative/libertarian revolution.
Please, do you even know what libertarians believe?
en.wikipedia.org...
Most members here aren't close to those actual beliefs. Did you know most libertarians actual believe there should be no restrictions on immigration
period? Free movement for all people. Most libertarians believe every road, every school, even the military should be a private enterprise. I worked
two Libertarian party campaigns. Oh and there you were thinking I was a democrat.
It must burn you up inside to know ats once a haven for socialists and the like is turning 'right-wing'.
Not really, I never saw that many socialists on this site. Socialism doesn't scare me considering most of the elements in our current government are
point-of-fact socialist.

Republicans support a lot of these measures. In truth both parties are rather socialist at the end of the day. They both seem to share the same
agenda. I mean come on, Pelosi voted for 90% of what Bush wanted her too. You call that an opposition?
Democrats are very left. But typical of a liberal...thats not left enough for you.
Most of what Demonrats support is not liberal in philisophy. You will notice i put right in quation marks. Because there is little difference between
the two parties at the end of the day. They both seem to support a corprate-state controlled economy. But for arguments sake, let's find out what a
liberal is shall we?

Most of you could be called Liberals, yet you use it as a dirty word to smear people. Looking at it, I don't think there's a damn thing wrong with
being a Liberal.

However, a survey conducted between 1983 and 1994 by Robert Altemeyer of Canadian legislative caucuses showed an 82% correlation between party
affiliation and score on a scale for right-wing authoritarianism when comparing right-wing and social democratic caucuses. There was a wide gap
between the scores of the two groups which was filled by liberal caucuses. His survey of American legislative caucuses showed scores by American
Republicans and Democrats were similar to the Canadian Right and liberals, with a 44% correlation between party affilitation and score.[37]
Most surveys have found exactly what this guy found-most people with a party affiliation tend to swing toward authoritarianism, that's not
liberalism.
Move to europe...that seems like the perfect politicle system for you.
I've been to Europe, it's alright. They can spell what they are talking about there for the most part.
Of course, none of this matter at the end of the day because you've bought into Beck and his shillery, so lets take a good look at Mr. beck.
He's not a Libertarian, no matter how much he professes it. You cannot sit there and advocate a VAT tax on O'reilly and claim to be a libertarian.
The guy proclaimed Libertarians were terrorists and Ron Paul supporters were going to bomb people. Enjoy your little moment in the sun with him
because he's going to turn you out faster than a pimp at the Freaknic.
