1 Yeah, after the tax thing it went all anti-Iraq and pro-libertarian so I turned it off. I used to be a libertarian until I was informed that one could not be a libertarian and still support liberty and democracy for Iraq since that was a form of oppression. I never understood how that worked but who am I to judge.

2 I'm with Chuck.  I might take Libertarians more serious if they took national security more serious.  In fact, I'd like to take the big L's more serious, but they don't give me any reason to.  A whole lot of them are conspiracy theorists, too.

3 I thought it was great. Libertarianism is much more practical than what either the Dems or the Reps are proposing right now. Just because they don't support a failed effort at American imperialism doesn't mean they're all bad.

4 Libertarians have become a joke. Hillary is stronger on national security than your average libertarian.

5 thats because hilary is a fake democrat

6 I couldn't get the thing to play past the tax subsidies for tabacco farmers part. Reading the comments here, I'm glad I couldn't.


If The Dork and Jakeass liked it, it had to suck.


Hey Dork, can you tell me which of our Imperial holdings pays us tax dollars or tribute? Where are the American overlords? Is the mission to aid iraq costing America a fortune, or are we stealing their oil and bleeding them dry with imposed taxes? You cant have it both ways, although that obviously doesn't stop you from trying.


Libertarianism is about as practical as Marxism. There has never been a libertarian culture in the history of mankind, because libertarianism is as impossible to achieve as communism and socialism. Few people are stupid enough to want it anyway. Expecting the strong not to prey on the weak in an ungoverned society were everybody magically cooperates with each other is sheer lunacy. Expecting the rest of the world not to promptly conquer a Libertard society is even more bat-shit insane.


There is no doctrine, ideology or system that holds all the answers and there never will be. Utopia is impossible.

7 Bravo, to the Good Lieutenant.
Hilarious, indeed.

8 Just for the record...

...I agree with comments #1 and #2. Interestingly, Neal Boortz himself, from what I've read -- and I've read much of what he's had to say over the years -- would also agree with us. The big issue is not "suppressing dissent" or discouraging personal credit, but taxes. Are we supposed to 1) work and earn money and then set aside a certain amount so that the government can continue to fund the essentials; or 2) just go through some jump-through-hoops exercise right before the government allows us to "keep" a sufficient amount to fund OUR essentials? That, to me, is what the video is all about.

If I were king -- not only would I pick the first of those two choices, thereby establishing the people as the owners of the nation's wealth...I'd whittle the government down to the essentials as I see them. But the libertarians would be disappointed with how I see them. At the top of the stack, is waging perpetual hostility against enemies of the flag & constitution, foreign and domestic. Saddam Hussein, to me, is a good start -- just like the fifty lawyers at the bottom of the lake in that joke. Stretch some more necks just like his, and, lock down that border. To make those two essentials happen, I'd jettison everything else short of fire halls and sidewalks.

Just wanting to define my own position, for whatever it's worth, with a little more surgical precision. As far as the young guy with a perm being jailed for his beliefs and spoken statements, I'm pretty much as bewildered as everyone else. I linked to the video anyway because I thought it was exceptionally well-done, and the title really spoke to me. And thanks to Good Lt for linking.

9 who said i liked it?

10 Jakeass:


You like anything that bashes bush and the mission to aid Iraq against the terrorists.


You also like warm showers with underage boys.

11 so how the bank isn't giving some of that interest money to the poor girl.  Never mind, I know the answer.  The CEO needs a new Jag or 3.
