Ah the sweet smell of libertarian paradise in the morning.
"The only decision I've made is I won't run against my dad," Rand Paul said.
OK, OK, just decide which of you doesn't want to govern the most then run for running the country.
He has upcoming trips planned to Iowa and New Hampshire, in part, he said, because "I want the tea party to have an influence over who the nominee is in 2012."
Ah the libertarian Tea Party, no taxes, guns and god the ones that want to tell everyone else how to behave but themselves.
Libertarianism often seems the principle that doing nothing is a good idea, heck it makes the job of governing so much easier. What they usually mean is "I don't give a fuck."
So rather than fight between themselves as to who wants to not govern the most they should just toss a Liberty coin and decide that way. Oh damn, all the coins have been siezed and the forger is going to prison
Bernard von NotHaus, 67, was convicted Friday at in a federal courtroom in Statesville of making, possessing, and selling $7 million worth of his own coins, according to a news release from the FBI in Charlotte. He could be imprisoned up to 25 years and federal prosecutors are now seeking the forfeiture of 16,000 pounds of Liberty Dollar coins and precious metals that were used by the group (worth an estimated $7 million)
Von NutHaus..NotHaus apparently put Ron Paul's head on many of the coins, I'm just surprised it wasn't on both.
I suppose the campaign slogan could be:
"Vote For Us We Don't Give A Shit"
I'm always a trifle wary of those say the current system is terrible and we want to turn it upside down, historically this has lead to some of the most viciously authoritarian regimes.
Personally I think if the Republicans chose one or even both the Goldwater campaign would look a resounding success in hindsight. More power to them...or less... as the case may be...
Ah Libertarian Tea...... smells like Somalia.
