To: Reaganite Republican
TO All Intellectually Challenged Republicans Who Think That Republicans Are Owed the Libertarian Vote:

Every time a Republican loses an election some whiney Republican cheerleader comes out of the woodwork and rather than blame the candidate that lost, blames the libertarians because they didn't vote Republican. Well I have a bit o news for ya Jack:

As one of the other posters pointed out, Libertarians are not Republicans. Think about it.

AND, because they're NOT Republicans, why do you think that they should vote for Republican candidates? From a Libertarian perspective there isn't a whole lot of difference between the two major parties. Both are hell bent on increasing the size of government and making it more intrusive. Think back as to who gave us the

  1. Full auto ban
  2. Senior drug give away
  3. No child left behind
  4. Ethanol as a motor fuel
to name just a few of the moronic/statist things that Republicans did. The reason that Libertarians vote their consciences rather than some statist Republican is because Republicans DON'T REPRESENT THEIR VALUES. You might as well chide Democrats for not voting Republican.

Until the Republicans decide to stop embracing socialism and being Democrats Lite and actually represent CONSERVATIVE values, then don't expect Libertarians to vote for anyone BUT libertarians. You don't expect Republicans to vote Libertarian do you? SO why the hell should you expect Libertarians to vote Republican?

It seems a pretty simple concept, but one that eludes many Republicans.

I wouldn’t vote for ‘em until they represented CONSTITIONAL values; these ‘conservative’ values always seem to get pushed to the side to ‘reach across the aisle’
