    Absolutely! It's why the radical groups way to the right like libertarians will never stand a chance to really win anything.

    No, you are the one who said "who cares what the liberal thinks".

    He's the one who responded...

    "anyone who says "Screw all the Republicans" or "Who cares what the liberals think?" are clueless about the bigger picture"

    Yep! One instance of his "debating style" are these responses on his "Hussein" thread:

    As a liberal, I'd vote for a libertarian. I don't consider them "far right conservatives." I consider them "conservatives with brains." Of course, I'd hope they'd focus more on fiscal responsibility and removing what I consider absurd laws and departments of government, instead of removing such social benefits as the newly passed health care.

    You aren't going to find a libertarian that agrees with the healthcare plan so good luck trying to find one to vote for. They also all believe the Bush tax cuts for the rich don't go far enough and the rich in this country are all getting screwed, suppose you agree with that too?

    Agreed to an extent. The Libertarians favor cutting all taxes so it's not like they favor the rich. Taxes | Libertarian Party

    Maybe I missed it, but it's not clear what type of tax system they prefer, but I suspect it is either a a flat tax, consumption tax or no tax.

    I'm aware a libertarian wouldn't support it, but that doesn't mean they'd eradicate it instead of other areas that the majority of the population would agree on. As for the latter, the libertarians I know (and if I'm not mistaken, Ron Paul) favor a flat tax rate.

    If somebody breaks into your house why would you introduce them to your son?

    That would stand to reason, unless they aren't in it for the money.
