Well abc has been caught censoring Ron Paul. He's more a libertarian than a republican, anti-irs, anti-nwo, and had an apperance on Aron Russo Freedom to Facism. Personally I'm thinking of changing to the libertarain party myself since the Democrats and Republicans, excuse me, the Liberals, and Neo cons have screwed us so much.

As much as it saddens me to see the LP cheering on wackos like the tax protestors, they're really the closest to my beliefs as well -- very socially liberal, very fiscally conservative, hands-off in foreign policy except when necessary. There aren't too many other parties that align that way...

amen. :shrug:
Yeah --- I don't know why the Libertarian Party doesn't have more of a following (maybe because it seems futile in our basic 2 party system) but to me the Libertarian party best represents what America is all about and what we are continually getting away from. To me it also represents true conservatism. But anyway,

true conservatism...minus the social issues. One way to think about it is the best of both worlds, another the worst of both.
Conservatism and liberalism are hard things to define --- right now Conservative has a strong religious (Christian) association which dictates adhering to certain social morals but I don't know if religion has anything to do with Conservatism really --when I think of "true" American Conservatism I think of Classical Liberalism -- " this concept refers to freedom from control by government, tradition, or an established church. It typically celebrates the potential of the individual and is more the antecedent of today's conservatism than of New Deal liberalism" and supports laissez-faire economics, property rights, natural rights. etc --- the original American ideals I think. Not much about social morals really. I think this more closely matches Libertarianism than Modern Conservatism. But just a thought.Quote:
