And, if one were to delve deeper, one would find there are other Libertarian principals that conservatives find unacceptable.

Such as support for abortion, legalization of psychedelic drugs, homosexual marriage, radical isolationism, unrestricted trade, and unrestricted control of the environment by government.
The Libertarian party is not founded on (US) Constitutional authority. It is a radical left wing variation of Marxism.
If the Dems take over in 2006, they'll waste the next two years impeaching Bush, and get nothing else done.
Frankly that doesn't scare me as much as you might believe. Nor does it seem very realistic.
Vote as you please, but I will give you a piece of advice from Common Tator: If conservatives stay home and don't vote, those who are elected will be beholden not to conservatives, but to moderates. You will then find candidates moving leftward to satisfy those dependable voters. The end result will be that the Republicans move leftward, and you will get less of what you want.
And, of course, if the democrats regain power you will get NOTHING of what you want and a whole lot of stuff that you don't want at all.
No, but this talk plus stupid talk from the liberal-tarians about a third party might make things just right for a rat take over.
And if it walks like a rat and talks like a rat, it's STILL a rat....
even if there's an 'R' after its name.
Hear, hear!!
Satan 2008! Why settle for the lesser evil?
"If conservatives stay home and don't vote, those who are elected will be beholden not to conservatives, but to moderates.

If a Republican runs on a liberal platform, with a liberal track record, and I vote for him, he will take my vote as acceptance of his posture and conduct. He will not get sworn in and say to himnself, "BOY, I'D BETTER CHANGE MY WAYS", now, will he?
Actually, no. This is a matter of national survival. If the WH is able to pressure the House into accepting amnesty, then GOP House members are toast. There are people who were not just precint workers in '04, but actual electors, that would be supporters of articles brought by Dem House managers in '07.
This move is GUARANTEED to elect Democrats to a majority. If any fringe party needs to be strengthened, it is the Greens. The Greens drive the dim candidates to the left and make the voters aware of dim "core values". The best way to insure more conservative policies by Republicans is to make our majorities LARGER so that there will be no need to enlarge the tent.
OK Miss Marple -- That's Good.
And the strict judicial appointments Are Good -- Those are presidential appoinments of course, and 2006 is NOT a Presidential Year. VERY IMPORTANT DISTINCTION!
I have NOT been very impressed with GOP support generally, and the post earlier "hissy fit", is exactly what I'm talking about. Heard that attitude before. I think THAT attitude expects me to keep voting for republicans, and to keep being satisfied at the end of the benefit line.
I even think that attitude should be evicted.
Take Prop 187. A piece of Legislation that would of done a great deal to stop this Illegal mess. A Leftist judge simply imposed his personal Leftist dogma and overturned the will of Californians.
Our suppose some miracle happens and the US House Republicans win the fight on Illegals and get their strict enforcement bill. Guess what. The day after the Law is signed, the ACLU and La Raza and a bunch of racists "Immigrant support groups" are going to go to one of their tame judges in San Fransisco or Boston or wherever and get an injunction to stop the laws from being enforced until years of legal battles are fought out all the way up to the Supreme Court. Judges, Judges, Judges. The Judges appointed in the next 4 years, especial to the Supreme Court are vital to our survival as a nation. 7 of 9 Justices were born in the 1920s. They are NOT going to be around much longer.
Trowing a temper tantrum because you do not get ONLY 100 % of what YOU personally want TODAY so the Leftist get to appoint those judges would be an incredibly foolish thing for anyone truly "Conservative" to do.
I disagree. They will do everything they can to subvert, facilitate corruption, and hijack the election process. Through these acts, felons, illegals, will be able to vote, as well as multiple fraudulent voting will be allowed. Don't put ANYTHING past a Democrat. He will do ANYTHING to control your life....
I hope you're right, but there are a lot of things Congress can do against the President's wishes besides overriding a veto (which GW seems wont to do). Remember Slick Willie firing EVERY US Attorney in the US the day he took office? Congress can hold EVERYTHING having to do with funding hostage to get what it wants and the Repubs ALWAYS cave... Mark my words...if they win 2006, they've got 2008, 2012, 2016 and so on.....
OK I'll mark your words, and you mark mine.
2006 is the wake-up call to GOP Presidential Candidates. If the call doesn't come, they distance themselves from conservatives and run in the center.
But if the Wake up call does come, they look hard to the Right, and run to the conservative Base. Mark My words.
It doesn't matter if a RAT takes over. There's not enough difference between the political parties over issues that matter.
So, we get Hitlery for four years, if the nation can survive Carter, we can survive her.
I'm ready for a change. Maybe the Consitution Party is one to something.
