70. Another big corp neocon disquised under the illusive "libertarian" label
It's so easy being a libertarian, you never have to be held responsible for standing for anything!

This is why, prior to Rush Limbaugh, most talk radio hosts were also "libertarians".

Everytime I've seen a "libertarian" speak up here, the issue has ALWAYS changed into "they're not THAT kind of libertarian..."

I remember one message CASUALLY listing like 11-12 different "kinds" of libertarian, comprising a matrix of a possible 768 types (sarcastic statistic), none of whom want to take responsiblity for what "other" libertarians expouse. This is all in the face of the fact that SOMEHOW they manage to have ONE libertarian party...

So what the hell does it mean when you call yourself a libertarian?

Until you're able to defend what another libertarian (any one) says, not much.
