Does the Libertarian Party want to win?

I've always referred to my self as "little l" libertarian because I never joined the party. I voted for Libertarian candidates when I thought they had the best platform.

I think the philosophy of The Libertarian Party is grand, but I'm not sure I like their campaign strategy. Or lack thereof, as it would seem.

I've offered to do interviews with candidates who know I may have a slight tendency to support Libertarian Candidates.........Read LP does not want to win elections

Between Iraq and a Hard Place

Beat...... Beat....... Beat..... You can hear them in the distance. The war drums, preparing us for yet another Bush Administration war. Iran, another member of the axis of feeble hears them too.

During the last two republican debates, many of the candidates have discussed Iran, and possibly using tactical Nukes to destroy any nuclear facility in the Persian Empire. Nine out of Ten (the tenth being Ron Paul) candidates refused to take the option off the table during the most recent debate...... Read Iraq and a hard place

Jackson County GA: Real Estate Boom

I grew up in Jackson County Georgia, about 60 miles northeast of Atlanta on the I-85 corridor. I grew up on Jackson Trail road, back before the developers moved in. And they have moved in. Jackson County is the 43rd fastest growing county in the nation, and has been moving down the list at a very fast pace since 2000. I don't live in Jackson County now, but I still consider it home......Read Real Estate Boom

The Fair Tax: Can it help The dollar compete with the Euro?

If you've been to Europe lately, you may have noticed how weak the U.S. dollar is right now.

The Euro is strong, and there have even been whispers here in America about a new North American Union, a E.U. style body, complete with a common money. (The Amero?)....Read The Fair Tax and the Euro

The Liberals Guide to libertarianism

Have I been ignoring my liberal friends lately?
Maybe.... I think I've been trying to show many liberals that there is a different kind of conservative out there. A Goldwater conservative who'll discuss the issues, not just spout buzzwords and make personal accusations and ignore your points......Read The Liberals Guide to Libertarianism

Does the Libertarian Party want to win?

I've always referred to my self as "little l" libertarian because I never joined the party. I voted for Libertarian candidates when I thought they had the best platform.

I think the philosophy of The Libertarian Party is grand, but I'm not sure I like their campaign strategy. Or lack thereof, as it would seem.

I've offered to do interviews with candidates who know I may have a slight tendency to support Libertarian Candidates.

I've only offered to interview Libertarians (except for 1 time). They've all either not gotten back to me, said they would accept but didn't answer the questions I spent time writing. George Phillies, whom I continue to support (not just because of the interview, I like his politics) is the exception, and I appreciate the fact that he answered the questions.

Is it too much to ask that a candidate who is running to answer 10 questions?

One Libertarian Candidate held my questions for 2 months, and then the day before the election sent them back. Of course then the campaign posted the questions and answers on their myspace blog and official blog, but didn't link me. I never posted the interview. He finished 8th, in a 10 person race.

Now I wish they hadn't gotten back to me at all.

Hey Libertarian Party..... yeah, I'm talking to you! Its me "Lil l - libertarian". I'm the guy that sent you money 2 weeks ago, but have yet to get my card or a thank you or anything. Do you have to ship the LP Membership cards from Taiwan? I'm no big-barrel blogger (I usually have around 400 people read my blogs between thegblog and myspace), but I'd like to think someone who doesn't have the ability to fire back criticism that I do would be treated better. As far as you knew when I joined, thats who I was.

I'm the guy who has sent email after email, without response for 3 months now.

I'm also the guy who joined as a founding delegate to Unity 08. I actually spoke skeptically about this organization to begin with, but it appears they have stepped up to the plate.

I've had comments on my "official" blog from Unity08 representatives. Not just comments, but questions and responses, and requests for feedback. I've been called by the organization 1 time, and get a weekly email or two. I like politics, so its not overwhelming to me.

So ship up LP, your platform is heavily based on the benefits of competition. We're about to see how you handle the thing that I agree makes America Great.

Are you ready for a change LP? I, and many of my friends are. We're trying to pick you up by the boot-strap, but you've to got to do some of this by yourself.

Between Iraq and a Hard Place

Beat...... Beat....... Beat..... You can hear them in the distance. The war drums, preparing us for yet another Bush Administration war. Iran, another member of the axis of feeble hears them too.

During the last two republican debates, many of the candidates have discussed Iran, and possibly using tactical Nukes to destroy any nuclear facility in the Persian Empire. Nine out of Ten (the tenth being Ron Paul) candidates refused to take the option off the table during the most recent debate.

That, to me is a good-enough reason to refuse to vote for any Republican (like I would anyway, I know) candidate, and to be honest, this is the scariest thing I've heard in a long time.

I could discuss the environmental effect (people that don't believe in Global climate change should stop reading, I'm going to make sense for a minute) would be disastrous to the region.

The political effects would be much worse for the Middle-East, and The U.S.

If we killed 10,000 people with these tactical nukes (considering the after effects seen at Chernobyl, I believe this estimate to be low), we'd create 100,000 terrorists

This would be seen as a declaration of war by Iran, as it should. They would immediately invade Iraq. This would cause Saudi-Arabia (You remember them, the country that actually had more to do with September 11th than Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan.....follow the money.....) to come to the defense of their Sunni brothers in Iraq.

And they're all going to attack Israel.

I believe this is likely to happen when we pull our troops out of Iraq before the next election anyway. But at least our troops won't be there to get stuck in the middle of a regional war.

It is time for people to W A K E U P ! ! ! Seriously. The Sheet of Glass theory is ridiculous, and it will only cause more harm to our nation. I'm trying to be clear on this point. If you support pre-emptive nuclear attacks, you have no business being State Senator, much less President of The United States. Nuclear weapons should only be used if they are used on us. No exceptions. A pre-emptive nuclear attack on Iran is direct support for Al Queda (A Sunni organization) and it would give comfort and aide to the 50 or so al queda members left fighting us in Iraq.

The Bush Administration has created more Islamic extremists than it has eliminated. The Republican Candidates (except Ron Paul) want to create more.

They are playing on your fears. Fears they created. Its one big circle of fear. Fear of Iran, Fear of Iraq, and Al Queda. Fear of a Democratic Administration. Fear of everything except the American People.

Our government should fear us above all else. It hasn't feared us for quite some time.
