I Was a Card-Carrying Libertarian: Confessions of a Black Sheep Republican
Yes, libertarian concepts are rather idealistic. I fully accept and realize that many people have serious problems with granting freedom to others they deem not ‘capable’ of handling such freedom.
I feel the same of every person who calls Ron Paul a ‘crazy’. Had I my druthers, I’d never let you near a sharp pair of scissors, let alone a voting machine.
However, common sense prevails, and I realize that even the dumb and stupid among us deserve a chance to have their opinion, however incorrect it may be.
So I’ll continue to vote for libertarians, you continue to vote for fascists, and one day you’ll realize just how mistaken you were.
Luckily, I have the grand fortune(or misfortune, as it may be) of knowing that my position is the philosophically and Constitutionally correct one. Self-righteous anger is always satisfying, even in defeat.
Cheers to you all,
Jason in Kansas
