libertarians vs republicans

except bar is actually open every two years and progressives end up like brat pack at end of st elmo's fire wondering what happened to this place while eric cantor is inside doing body shots

Bar's open all the time - the Koch Brothers don't wake from their slumber on Nov 6th of ever year that's divisible by 4, for example.

sry no maths in the bar gonna have to ask u to leave

"maths"

libertarianism liberalism is kind of like being a liberal without having to give a shit about anyone poorer than you

left-wing people talking shit about 'liberalism' is the politics equivalent of people on ilm talking about 'white people'

"maths"

wot is there a problem m8

when you watch Judge Napolitano types they kind of revel in being atomized individuals. They have even less interest in being a coherent band fighting for principles than Democrats do. Why should you fight for principles when you don't believe in a government willing to use its own moral authority or police power to enforce them?

since when is alfred 'left-wing' people?

since when have you thought I was anything else?

i have never heard alfred offer a heterodox opinion, tho i have on occasion heard him offer that he holds them

ILX: land of the homodoxy.

okay lol

lol

'heterodox' is one of those words that sounds more fun than it actually is

like titmouse

or anal retentive. i used to think liberals and progressives were much more likely to be self-critical, skeptical of their side, heterodox and less likely to be 'fuck the other team!' sheeple than conservatives. then came facebook.

i know we've done alfred's TRU political ideology b4 but honestly i can't remember the conclusion of that debacle and my day2day impression is that it's MOR moderate that digs officials w/ charisma. obv left enough to hang on ilx (i always wish we could rustle up a few more legit conservatives for maximum clusterfuck enjoyment), but not what i'd consider ##srs## left-wingism.

on the other hand "satrap" is fun the whole lib family can enjoy

it's MOR moderate that digs officials w/ charisma

lol you are confusing me with Andrew Sullivan.

yeah, tbh i kinda think of you as ilx's personal andrew sullivan

aw

that is the sweetest, most endearing insult I've ever read

I don't mind being submitted for analysis but I'm about as immune to charisma in politicians as ILM is to Libertines records. I mean, I never voted for Obama, and I've never fucked a bear, with or without an online ad.

are we playing two truths and a lie

hahahaha

and you would be the lie?

xpost

where's don weiner? He tried to pass for a conservative

is whiney ilx dick morris?

does that make deej Breitbart?

weiner was actual libertarian! i liked him though i think i pissed him off once when i compared libertarians to scientologists.

dom as tucker carlson, supposedly still alive out there on the web but really who knows. gabbneb as mickey kaus too obv but true.

how do you prove someone is a libertarian? There's always a breaking point with those self-professed libertarian types.

lex as anne coulter too obv but true also (iirc he'd welcome the comparison)

if you want to privatize roads...you might be a libertarian

roger adultery as the nuge?

before Facebook liberals did what -- read Lewis Lapham?

hi thread, not all gays have daddy issues, andrew sullivan is not one of them. that is all.

a daddy, a gay, a thread?

left-wing people talking shit about 'liberalism' is the politics equivalent of people on ilm talking about 'white people'

is this disappearing POC on ILX while defusing green, socialist, commie, or anarchist critiques as their being liberals really?

in any case, OP needs a vs iatee option

"This asshole always seems to pick just the right Edith Wharton quote to really make my blood boil."

sorry, he is not one of the gays who do not have daddy issues. *checks watch* time for me to go xp

who is zvookster

where's that thread where ppl admit the things they are really right wing (or republican) about?

It was really fascist, I think?

yeah, found it: things you're secretly kinda fascisty about

we should do one for republican

i wonder who the most right-wing ilxor is and sometimes i wonder if it's me
