‘Get rid of government — but first make me President’

June 15, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

As I keep saying: weed is the abortion of libertarians.

Ann Coulter on the GOP candidates:

Monday night’s debate did crystallize for me why I dislike libertarians (…)

Sure, all good libertarians want to legalize drugs, but the question is whether that is more important than legalizing the ability to locate your widget factory where you want to put it. Even purists can have priorities.

Most libertarians are cowering frauds too afraid to upset anyone to take a stand on some of the most important cultural issues of our time. So they dodge the tough questions when it suits their purposes by pretending to be Randian purists, but are perfectly comfortable issuing politically expedient answers when it comes to the taxpayers’ obligations under Medicare and Social Security.
