Anti-Neocons

Ha ha. That could be. Funny saying if anything.

Daily Show was pretty funny a few weeks ago when they were showing the Libertarian Party in Harlem distributing "Guns for Tots". It was based on principle because the government was trying to legislate that kids couldn't have toy guns or whatever, heh, heh.. but as Daily Show pointed out sarcasticlly.. is it really practicle? And I mean, will it solve starvation, and climate change (which many Libertarians seem to disbelieve), or terrorism etc.? So yeah, I can see that little saying having some legitimacy.

Libertarians are better than that. They pretty much run antiwar.com a great sight.

The media yes even comedy central an arm of the left, picks on the most extreme kinds of libertarians. It's like using Rush to represent all republicans or joe liberman for all democrats. Or the harry potter book burners for all christians.

OH I'm definitely not saying that's all of them, don't get me wrong. I understand they come in as many different stripes as any other political philosophy. I'm just saying The Daily Show has a good point on the tendency of over zealous Libertarians who put far too much emphasis on principle.

But yeah, Daily Show when they are trying to make a serious political point are quite Liberal. Just straight up, too. Like totally typical Democrat (not too moderate, not too leftist). But that's okay. As far as journalism goes and them holding people accountable for things they do, they are better than pretty much the rest of cable. I watch it religiously and not really because I want to get the day's news either. It's not about the news. It's about the mockery, the ridicule, and witty points they make concerning power. Sure, they're there for laughs, but even the court jesters have truth behind their jokes about the king, ya know? I'd rather listen to the jestures than the trumpets of war.

I'm definitely not a Libertarian. I think unregulated capitalism is a disaster and I honestly think the Libertarians in general are going to be a problem in the future. If the American general public ever realizes the current two-party hegemony is a bad thing and starts looking for new ideas the Greens and Libertarians will be first to bat. As somebody who prefers the Greens, I think we should watch out for the Libertarians now.

What an interesting statement. I wonder if I'll ever get the chance to see it. Did you see it in a movie or something? Read it in a book?
