Good stuff Scott. Even more of a danger is the real possibility of a pacifying, "peace" at any costs liberal gaining the White House. Can you say Neville Chamberlain? The price of gold (sic), err... I mean oil will not immediately dramtically change (based on a free market economy) no matter who is in the oval office. The threat of doom, in my opinion lies with the jihadists. Enjoyed the video and a good metaphor for the current state of our world.
Don, as much as I hate the Dems, I'll take them over the NeoCons at this point. Since the Republicans are dead set against nominating anyone who isn't pro-war, they've got no chance of wining anyway.
Laura, I'll have to look up Mojo Nixon as I have no clue who they are. Are you sure we need them though? I mean are you sure?
And yes, I'm sure we need government for certain things. I have little faith that the free market alone can solve our problems because I believe most people, at heart, are too selfish to willingly support those who are often left behind in a free market system. Social services, education, health care - should not be run for profit, but rather for the common good. I don't trust corporations to do that effectively without disenfranchising those most in need in favor of the bottom line.
That said, government could certainly be more efficient.

Well that does seem to be the major ideological difference myself and those of you on the left that visit this blog. I welcome you all though and appreciate the recent add to your blog list. I'm planning on adding you and Godwhacker pretty soon, I'm just too lazy to find a clever image for the both of you right now. :)

Wow, I am really saddened by your decision.
To think, my own son is as biased as the 3 major networks?
I see you like to sensor your web page.
I say something that goes against your "Libertarian thinking"?
(My comments on May 2)
Poof! it's gone.
Oh, how sad to think I raised a boy like that..............
Obviously I was too soft, your Mother always said that.
Woe is me..........................
Well May 2nd was quite a while a go. I can't say I remember deleting any of your comments. If you post it again I'll address it.
Funny and poignant.

That reminded me a bit of Mojo Nixon. Interesting. A bit extreme (we do need government for some things. Rummy givin the finger was classic...
That was really cool.

United, I thought it was fun anyway.
Mojo Nixon is a very strange man, not a group.

We may differ ideologically, but I think in many respects our eventual goals are similar. We just differ on the best way to get there.
