![]() "Otis Winslow" wrote in message ... I would hardly call Libertarians very conservative. While the free market position could lead one to think that ... the general approach of us being able to do our own thing as long as we don't interfere with others exercising that same freedom is a long way away from the ultra conservative approach. They want to control our every action and make our moral judgements for us. Libertarians are as far to the right as it gets in America. The Libertarians I know .. like me .. believe in maximum liberty and minimum government to the extent that it's practical. The problem with the Republicrats is one wants to control our bank account and one wants to control our bedroom. With Libertarians .. at this point .. having little practical political power we're forced to choose between the extreme right or the extreme left. Libertarians are the extreme right. "Tarver Engineering" wrote in message ... "Otis Winslow" wrote in message .. . Go he http://www.libertarian.org/index2.html The Hoover Institute is the leading libertarian think tank in America and it is very conservative. In fact, outside the Hoover Institute libertarians have had little power in the US since FDR's Presidency began. Libertarians inside the Republican Party were responsible for the "balanced budget" we had a few years ago. "Tarver Engineering" wrote in message ... "C J Campbell" wrote in message ... So now you have 'conservatives' running around talking about property rights and states' rights Republicans have always supported States' rights, as that is the basis of a republic. (originally created to protect slavery) Democrats wanted the 3/5 law and Republicans were not willing to go to war over it and as long as libertarins could control the purse everyone was willing to leave things be for a while. and protecting large corporations while espousing populist principles. The libertarian wing (once Federalists) of the Republican Party insistthey address the issues of fiscal responsibility and a small central government, but libertarians are out of favor now due to their isolationist tendancies. And you have the 'liberals' running around trying to limit free speech and press, disarming the public, and supporting the worst thugs and despots imaginable in other countries in the name of 'diversity' and 'tolerance.' Racism has always been the Democrats' product. |
