Gary Johnson...the Libertarian? Really????
RobertNashville replied to RobertNashville's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Didn't you get the memo? Even if you didn't, how could anyone not figure it with all the dozens of "Pro-RP", "Pro-GJ", "anti-Romney" videos posted in the past couple of months, mostly as the first post of the thread and then usually laced through each thread. I'm just going with the flow. -

Didn't you know???Posting videos has become meaningful dialogue now. -

Of course people can change....unless of course your name is Mit Romney. -

What plank really means is that he doesn't care about the glaring inconsistencies in his chosen candidate. But he's always up for pointing out any perceived inconsistencies in Romney -

Some POS Followed My Wife Home

I'm truly very glad your wife is okay but you really need to have a serious conversation about how she should have handled this. -

Really classy poster...funny how some seem to have nothing better to do than make up anti-Romney pictures and videos but I guess lashing out is to be expected from some when you candidates have no chance of prevailing in the election. -

As far as I know, the only thing Romney did as governor that could be labeled "socialist" was MA health care but as I understand the history of that legislation, there was no attempt to nor does it go around the private health care industry - whereas Obama has said multiple times that he wants and Obamacare will push everyone into a single-payer, universal health care system which will kill private health care insurance. What I know about Romney is that he's proven himself in business and that his actions show me that he is a capitalist at heart. That gives me reason to believe that he will seek solutions to our problems based in private, free-market capitalism rather than government and that he'll surround himself with those who think the same way. What I believe about Romney (based in part on the lack or any evidence to the contrary and also on personal experience with those of the Morman faith) is that he is an honest, principled man who will at least attempt to do what is best for the country. Whether he will "man enough" for the job? Who knows - how can we actually know that about anyone until they get there...I am just convinced that he is a far better choice than the commie in office now and the only choice who actually has the ability to win the election. -

At least for this election, the answer is easy; the reason not to vote third party or for anyone other than Romney is to ensure that nothing is done that makes it easier for the communist to remain in office and finish the job he's started to fundamentally transform America by... Granting amnesty to criminals who come here illegally, stay here illegally and work here illegally and costing taxpayers billions of $$$ in public assistance, draining our educational system of funds and filling up our prisons AFTER they've killed someone or done something nearly as bad while concurrently and purposely refusing to stop the invasion of illegals crossing our borders every day. Forcing religious institutions to pay for things their faith is diametrically opposed to Eradicating the work for welfare system that successfully moved almost 50% of the prior recipients off the welfare rolls; turning it back into a way of life for people. Spending a $Trillion a year we don't have by borrowing and/or printing it - those chickens ARE going to come home to roost and it isn't going to be pleasant Socializing our healthcare system so that it's as bad as the rest of the world and which is totally unaffordable even if it were a better system Socializing major industry Killing the coal, oil and other domestic energy production Will go after our firearms at every opportunity (you know, those silly folks to cling to their guns and their religion) Will appoint two or three for four supreme court justices who are just as socialist/communist as he is Refuses to prosecute voter fraud and intimidation conducted by the Black Panthers but goes to war with any state that opposes a federal program/mandate I could go on but I think the point is clear. Voting for anyone other than Romney does nothing to get this America-hating communist out of office and may, to some extent at least, serve to keep him in office...why would I need any other reason to vote for Romney??? -

I give out plenty of reputation points, + and - 1s...so what? When you post an insulting, ant-Romney "F*CK TEH BILL OF RIGHTS" pic is it really a surprise that someone might take offense? -

Actually Mr Plank, before your post (above) I had given you one "-1" (for the anti-Romney pic) but hey, if you want to have a "-1" war we can do that; at least it will provide a bit of a diversion. -

True. To be a bit more clear, what has gotten a bit pedantic is that they get posted as if a little video is a reasonable substitute for substantive content - it's almost as if we've lost the capacity for original thought and dialogue so we get three-minute videos instead. It might be different if any of these videos actually had something new to say or presented a new viewpoint but they don't. -

I'm sure money is part of it...I mean, spend enough money and you can probably make a significant number of people believe night is day and up is down. Maybe I'm in the minority as I actually know what I believe and I know I'm a conservative and not an libertarian! -

No; I'd just be mad at you. ROTFLMAO -

I can't address the world media or what politicians pay for to put ads on media...I thought that would have been apparent. -

You may be right but I think it goes a lot further than just Obama and I wasn't just thinking of this particular election year. Aside form the occasional local race now and then when has a libertarian candidate ever gotten serious votes? I don't think very many if any...they've certainly not garnered any significant on a nationwide basis...I really think the libertarian viewpoint doesn't garner the votes because the view just doesn't resonate with very many people. However, I don't know of any way to prove that and I don't know of any detailed study of the issue either.
