Libertarians Split Down the Middle? How Mysterious…
Here's an article on "Hot-Tub Libertarians" by Ryan Sager. Go ahead and check it out, it's not that long.
Here's the part that kills me:
Given that libertarians' traditional home has been in the conservative base of the Republican Party for about five decades, as part of a strained partnership with social conservatives, their almost 50-50 split between the two parties today is big news.
Big news? When the Democrats and the Republicans have, for all intents and purposes, become a single party? And we split down the middle to vote for one or the other because it really doesn't matter which one we give our votes to? This…is big news?
Reminds me of a Bill Hicks routine about the puppet on the left and the puppet on the right. Gah.
