| 15. The why the fuck are you a Republican? Why not caucus with the Dems? |
|
Correct me if I'm wrong here, but to have run as a Republican in Texas, you were required to pledge yourself to stating that our laws come from Jesus Christ, and that you advocate the abolition of damn near every regulatory agency in the government.
Paul's right on very many things, but at its heart, Libertarianism is just another form of selfishness, and he's made his pact with the devil.
If he could sway his brothers in the "libertarian caucus" to cross the aisle, we could probably control the House tomorrow. Fat chance of that, though, because even though he hates governmental encroachment on his privacy, he'd much rather endure that than join the goddam human race and take responsibility for his fellow man.
Libertarians are adolescents; they're an example of arrested development at the best, and selfish so-and-sos at the worst.
