What the heck do you have against libertarians in general? Lots of us are voting for Bush.

Meanwhile, The American Conservative endorses John Kerry:

Kerry's the One

This world is going insane :-)

MoonBatman,

That's one editor at the American Conservative. The others are for El Dubya. Buchanan himself is, if that counts for anything. Which it doesn't.

I love how ever since he founded the AmCon, Pat Buchanan is every liberal's favorite conservative. Forget the whole "hate filled" '92 convention speech, forget that he worked for Nixon and takes a little too much interest in exculpating accused Nazis. Now it's, oh, PB's a brave dissenter from the Neocon orthodoxy that has gripped even gentiles within the Republican Party!

( I have heard from someone who has worked with him that he's actually a really nice, mild-mannered guy in person. But please, moral authority? )

Pot almost legal? I wish. How can a guy light up and enjoy a fat one knowing he might get popped for a piss test at work? Friggen Piss Nazis!

Ace,

I'm a big fan and a fellow Munuvian... you need to distinguish between small "l" libertarians and large "L" Libertarians.

Many of us small "l"s (and I think it safe to assume mega-libertarian bloggers like Virginia Postrel and Stephen Green fall in this category) are likely voting for Bush this time around.

The big-L libs are typically doctrinaire and rigid. Small-ls much more flexible. FWIW.

I consider myself libertarian-ish. Mostly because I think the less power the government has the better. However I also believe in not being shy about spereading around the ass-kicking, so I'm not isolationist like some libertarians. I also think the government is better equipped to handle some things like the military and health emergencies. I also prefer alcohol to pot. But the drug war is a farce. I just don't really care about a number of republican social issues so I don't consider myself republican.

There is no way in Hell I'd vote for Kerry because I think he is a) a liar b) defintely a socia.list c) will never act aggressively and d) is Jimmy Carter jr.

I will vote for Bush and frankly don't have any significant gripe with him unlike like alot of people who consider themselves somewhere in the libertarian neighborhood. The deficit as a percentage of GDP is not as bad as some people have made it out to be. The recession was obviously started before the Bush admin. Raising taxes would therefore be a bad idea. Cutting spending was certainly not much of an option after 9/11. Iraq shoulda been taken care of in the 90's. When you start a war you better frigging finish it. Wars are fraught with failures and triumphs. The triumphs of this one have been quite stunning and the failures not nearly as big as many in past wars.

So to libertarians who are down on Bush I say, Stop being whiny little bitches!
