Ha!

"WHEN THEY CAME FOR THE LIBERTARIANS, I MOCKED THEM, BECAUSE THEY ARE IDIOTS, AND LIBERTARIANS ARE WELL-ARMED."

Link to an article with a big ol strawman complaint.  The linked article even SAYS, "Some libertarians will claim we are arguing against a straw man and that no serious adherent to their philosophy advocates the extreme positions we describe."

Yes, you are arguing against a straw man.  Am I taking crazy pills?  It's more straw than the Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz.  You aren't hammering out some third middle way.  The AMericans with a libertarian bent and concern about the direction this country is going already own that ground, when you aren't misrepresenting them you could see that.

But this isn't about you getting something wrong about libertarians, is it, Hanauer and Liu....

I reserve the right to delete patently offensive comments. Or, really, any comment I feel like. Or I might leave a really juicy comment up for private ridicule. Also spammers.

You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
