Horseshit Of The Day

Liberty Republicans.

Again I beg: A quick shot behind the ear, execution-style. Now. Please!
Liberty Republicans. They are the young, more libertarian-minded, grassroots supporters that used to be identified chiefly by their favorite Republican presidential candidate, former Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas.

Now, as the Republican National Committee tries to repair relationships and increase outreach to all political groups, they are doing their best to entice more libertarian Republicans into the fold.

Some of these supporters were turned off by what was described as the "railroading" of Ron Paul supporters by RNC Chairman Reince Priebus during the 2012 convention in Tampa.
The typist (The Washington Examiner, f.f.s.) does remind us of some of the more essential qualities of the Liberty Republican:
But the RNC wants to appear welcoming to the libertarian element in their party, which more established members of the party once derided as "Paultards" after they disrupted events in favor of their candidate.
No question that adding younger-ish white males (or geeks) mostly unconcerned w/ anything but their unacknowledged privilege & tax (& spending) cuts will offset the old white goobers & their wives w/ the same concerns & really "increase outreach to all political groups." No question at all. Go for it, G.O.P.!

[Totally pointless note from the typist on this end: When this cretin Spiering typeth "RNC wants to appear welcoming to" is he padding "wants to welcome"/"desperately fuggin' needs" w/ "wants to appear" or does he actually mean the RNC is just bullshitting, & would as soon the Paultards bugger off?]

But I digress ... uh ... so, mmm, further confirmation of conservative subsumption of libertarianism (... as Performed by the Inmates of ...). (See Edroso.)

My initial suspicion on seeing "Liberty Republicans" (Do the Krauts have one of their hyphenated deals for laughing w/ just a bit o' the proverbial vomit in the mouth?) was that Teatards, rather than Paultards, were being wooed & then rebranded.

The phrase also brought to mind this rather unfortunate image which has been lurking in the hard drive.
We stress that Ms. Thomas is not in any way involved in
this story beyond having helped cheapen the word liberty
by soaking herself in it a few yrs. back.

It doesn't bode well for your party when you have to woo people with nowhere else to go.

"Liberty Republican":

"I don't give a shit what you smoke or who you marry, I just don't want to contribute any of MY shit to the needs of the community".

Of course, the 800 pound fire truck in the room is that they still expect to receive services from the community when they need them...
