Vote Libertarian?

A colleague at work emailed to ask if I was voting Libertarian in November. My response:

ann, ann, ann.....

if i've said it once, i've said it a thousand times, libertarianism is something to talk with friends about while ripping off a clip from your Sig-sauer at bottles of sam adams tossed off your back porch, the heavy smell of the cigars and BBQ hanging in your nostrils while the mosquitoes meet a nasty death in the sorrowfully embracing arms of mother bug zapper, but it sure is hell is NOT the way to vote in the cold sobriety of an election booth!

sheesh!

Funny. I've had the same conversation with friends of mine too. Except it wasn't a mother bug zapper, but a protective ring of citronella candles.

i usually refer to libertarianism as "republicans without the morals". which i sorta like, i mean it as a complement, and might even consider voting libertarian if i thought they stood a chance in hell of actually winning, and if they hadn't gone sour on the war.
