Paul raises $19 million in fourth quarter

If anyone is familiar or has had run-ins with Ron Paulians directly then they should know that this is not a surprise. It’s a cult. They can get 63,000 people to donate 100 dollars or more each then you can see where they get this kind of cash. Say what you want these libertarians know how to mind fuck each other. I call this a cross between Hippies and Anarchists. Libertarians are the Marxists of the Right. They are against all forms of government completely.
Ron Paulians are libertarians. They are not conservatives! They ride off the backs of liberals and conservatives.

On Moral Sanctions

IS LIBERTARIANISM AN EVIL DOCTRINE? Yes, if evil is the irrational and the destructive. Libertarianism belligerently rejects the very need for any justification for its belief in something called “liberty.” It repudiates the need for any intellectual foundation to explain why “liberty” is desirable and what “liberty” means. Anyone from a gay-rights activist to a criminal counterfeiter to an overt anarchist can declare that he is merely asserting his “liberty”—and no Libertarian (even those who happen to disagree) can objectively refute his definition. Subjectivism, amoralism and anarchism are not merely present in certain “wings” of the Libertarian movement; they are integral to it. In the absence of any intellectual framework, the zealous advocacy of “liberty” can represent only the mindless quest to eliminate all restraints on human behavior—political, moral, metaphysical. And since reality is the fundamental “restraint” upon men’s actions, it is nihilism—the desire to obliterate reality—that is the very essence of Libertarianism. If the Libertarian movement were ever to come to power, widespread death would be the consequence. (For elaboration, see my essay “Libertarianism: The Perversion of Liberty.”)

Justice demands moral judgment. It demands that one objectively evaluate Libertarianism, and act in accordance with that evaluation. It demands that one identify Libertarianism as the antithesis of—and therefore as a clear threat to—not merely genuine liberty, but all rational values. And it demands that Libertarianism, like all such threats, be boycotted and condemned.

jp,

Libertarianism is an amoral and unethical movement that can justify any action to achieve it’s end of promoting what they call “Liberty” which is really unfettered amoral anarchy. Legalize drugs, de-fund the military, eliminate the government completely, all justified as long as physical force is not used. It’s a disgruntled Hippie’s paradise.

CK MacLeod,

On a positive note, I would say that having the energy of some substantial fraction of the country’s naifs, crazies, and cynics focused on Ron Paul and his actually rather quaint notions of Constitutionalism may be preferable to some of the alternatives.

I see some of your point but that’s the same attitude that allows the passive to blow off the cash rich advances and agenda of Communist China. They got cash rich because they are using amoral business dealings that steal or acquire intellectual property from inventors and manufacturers. The net effect is loss of knowledge and capability by the those who are passive about it. In a nut shell cash does influence those who have no regard for ethics or morality.

Just like Ron Paul doesn’t care where is money comes from.

dedalus,

Libertarian definition of “Liberty” are not the same as those envisioned by the founders. There is a difference between morality and liberty. Libertarians don’t see a difference. Individual liberty is not absolute freedom to do whatever you want. The Libertarian version is a rejection of rationality and justifying actions based on an individuals feelings rather than logic. Hence their ability to condone drug and abortion as personal liberty without any regard for moral ramifications or even justifying the reason drug use is a good “liberty”.

muyoso,

Again, you are claiming the Libertarians have originated these ideas and trying to establish the pretext that they are the only ones who think this way. If Ron Paul get’s elected there will be a huge shift away from true conservative principals in lue of liberal anarchy.

Let’s hope that the new year doesn’t bring us to make a choice between a women with low self esteem and sympathies towards Communism who we can’t afford or man who condones anarchy wrapped in the stolen ideas of conservatism has sympathies for NeoNazis. Wouldn’t that be fucked up?
