| Pat Caddell: Undecideds Go For the Incumbent »
October 27, 2004
Ann Coulter Speaks (Kinda)Actually, she responds to an email interview; for some crazy reason, she doesn't trust the liberal media to print her answers accurately. Some good stuff, some vintage Ann, but I liked this especially: Q: Why don't you convert to libertarianism? You and John Stossel could get married and save America. Yup-yup. Libertarians are nice people and all, but seriously, a political philosophy has to be built on a more vigorous intellectual foundation than Weeeeeeeeeeeed! Weeeeed! Weed, man! Weeeeeeeeed! I mean, seriously. Conservativism goes back to John Stuart Mill, Edmund Burke. People like that. Big thinkers. Near as I can tell, libertarianism was born after a midnight showing of Cheech & Chong's Nice Dreams. And reliable sources inform me that most votes for a libertarian candidate are cast due to losing a bar bet of some sort. Come on, libertarians. Straighten up. Fly right. Come in on the winning team for the big win. posted by Ace at 02:15 AM
CommentsUh, Ace, why didn't this turn up first on your blog? Posted by: someone on October 27, 2004 02:27 AM
With your cries of "Weeeed!" I thought you were channeling Bill & Ben, not Cheech & Chong. Posted by: Pixy Misa on October 27, 2004 05:56 AM
Damn, I guess that means my chances of getting a more conspicuous link are down the shitter. I didn't register as a Libertarian- I just voted that way. ish. Posted by: thebastidge on October 27, 2004 06:25 AM
You and Coulter couldn't be more right about Libertarians, at least the ones in my state. All they care about is changing cannabis laws. Oh, one guy is obsessed with banning the draft, and seems to have made it his mission in life. I mean, he was trying to get laws passed forbidding it in the 90's. Posted by: Moonbat_One on October 27, 2004 06:46 AM
Ha! Well said, Ace. And as for the two-party system, I posit most wars are not three-sided affairs. Michael Moore, a hungry beefalo, and a plateful of tacos? That's a three-sided affair. Posted by: Velociman on October 27, 2004 07:08 PM
Um, Ace, John Stuart Mill was a libertarian. David Hume, now there's a good atheist conservative for you. You're right about the pot thing, though. Posted by: See-Dubya on October 27, 2004 07:08 PM
I always liked the definition of a libertarian as "A Republican without the morals." I think that sums up my political philosophy rather well. Posted by: francisthegreat on October 27, 2004 07:25 PM
There's a big difference between _l_ibertarians, and _L_ibertarians. Mainly, the little ell folk vote sanely. And I'd call Ann Rand one of the leading lights - though they're calling AnnRandism 'Objectivism' or something. And francis - I don't think it's without _all_ the morals. Personal property rights/self-defense and a few others can be considered 'morals'. Posted by: Al on October 27, 2004 09:28 PM
I'm with See-Dubya, Mill was a libertarian. He made me into a Libertarian. Look, Ann is right that we Libertarians need to talk less about drug legalization. It's but one part of the Libertarian platform, and a fairly unpopular one at that. For the record, I ran for state house as a Libertarian, but I'm voting for Bush because the Libertarian Party is wrong on the war on terror. Posted by: libertarianjim on October 28, 2004 12:22 AM
Libertarians are not conservatives. They are not liberals. They are not moderates/statists. http://lawgovpol.blogspot.com/2004/09/political-philosophies.html Posted by: Niffur on October 28, 2004 12:40 AM
Since folks are talking libertarianism here: check out this long letter to an undecided libertarian blogger from Ohio. HD Miller (at Travellingshoes.blogspot.com) linked to it a couple days ago: http://fladenexp.blogspot.com/2004/10/clint-taylor-elliot-you-better-vote.html

I used to like Ann Coulter but lately she has made some stupid remarks and her latest libertarian remarks show what schmuck she really is. What did Bush say "I once tried blow but I didn't like the smell" rofl. Yes legalization is but one of their many rational ideas. Comming soon to a theater near you: Bush Vs. Kerry - Who ever wins, we lose. Posted by: gothpunkr on October 28, 2004 10:59 AM
Libertarianjim said==>Libertarian Party is wrong on the war on terror. Really? America's imperialist policty is guaranteed to result in terror just as every imperialist entity throughout history has experienced terror. Why do we support the Saudi Royal Family? Money and Oil. Lets get all of our troops out of Saudi Arabia I personally could give a crap where the price of gas goes, its cheap as hell inflation adjusted here at $50/barrel (was $80/barrel during first gulf war in adjusted dollars).

One wouldn't expect coherent arguments from someone who uses the s/n "gothpunkr." And one would be absolutely right. Posted by: zetetic on October 28, 2004 11:24 AM
Of course your use of the "ad hominem" invalidates your views. Your a putz but not in an ad hominem sort of way. Posted by: gothpunkr on October 28, 2004 12:16 PM
