(Blame CATO/Libertarians for this election result)

Yep, it was the Libertarians who were in bed with Jack Abramoff. It was the Libertarians who funnelled lobbying business to their daughter. It was the Libertarians who stuffed record numbers of earmarks into spending bills while borrowing money to finance the war in Iraq.

It would behoove the GOP to learn a lesson or two from the Libertarians when it comes to fiscal restraint. Might just get the GOP back closer to its roots.

"It (Political Parties) serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms; kindles the animosity of one part against another; foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which finds a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passion. Thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another." -- George "Best address ever" Washington

LOL -- shifting gears to Orwell's other well-known book, I propose that our resident libertarian-bashers replace the word "Libertarian" with the word "Snowball": it's shorter, easier to spell, and conveys exactly the same miniscule cargo of intellectual content.
