Chud, first of all, investigate please the official "Libertarian" party platform before voting, and understand that there is a vast difference between small-l libertarians, whose principles of limited government and personal responsibility the Founding Fathers embraced, and the official, extremely leftist, bastardized, and false Libertarian party. They are as different as night and day.
Also, be advised that Ansell, who is deranged when it comes to small-l libertarianism to the point that he will libel, lie, and make accusations for which he should rightly have his nose punched by HONORABLE folks, is one of maybe half a dozen FReepers who are mentally unhinged when it comes to being honest about what small-l libertarianism is.
However, that tiny little group of FReepers squawk and holler and libel and LIE so loudly and frequently that it's easy to get the impression that they aren't a very, very tiny minority. If you read FR long enough and keep a little logbook, as I have learned to do over the years so I can keep my FReepers straight, you'll find that the VAST majority of common sense CHRISTIAN limited government conservatives understand the value of small-l libertarianism and hold vicious liars like ansel12, who insult the morals and honor of very good people, in contempt, and rightly.
Please do what I do and ignore ansel12's posts when it comes to libertarianism, along with the other four or five FReepers who will chime in with him using the same libelous insults, insulting your morality and your very honor. They are sick and demented, and A TINY MINORITY that yells and screams so horrifically that they create the illusion that they're not. But crunch the numbers -- I have, and truly, they are in company with are very, very very few people here. The overwhelming majority of true conservatives understand very well that Ansel12 and The Rabidly Anti-Libertarian Liars on FR are demented.
That was the most rabid, deranged and ridiculous, stalking post that I have ever seen at freerepublic.
All exploding from a simple post (49) on the Libertarian Party platform and a guy who is saying he will vote for them.
Wow.
