Libertarian candidate Barr says 2008 is third-party year

Link

I'm surprised this slipped under Wordforge's radar. Is this something to get excited about or not?

Who?

Yay, and 2008 is the year of the Linux desktop.

As were 2007,2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 1999

The Barr-Paul alliance won't get Barr into the White House, but it probably will ensure that McCain doesn't get in there either.

I'm afraid the two parties will continue to hold the power until the problems caused by the redistribution of the people's money outweigh its benefits.

Even then, I suspect it may take bloodshed to loosen their death grip on our nation.

Bring the rain.

Why did Roseanne Barr pop in to my head?

Because her candidacy would be more legitimate than either Barr's or Paul's.

So what would those of you who dismiss third parties and their supporters have us do?

One can dream....

Who do you want in there today?...I can't keep track :flow2:

Perhaps, but who cares? I don't want McCain in the White House anyway.

Bend over and take it like a real man.

I want Barr in there. Or Paul.

Apart from that I think Obama will do far less damage than McCain. Both of them will be FDR 2: Electric Boogaloo, Obama will at least lack that lust for war and empire that McCain seems to dream of.

Well...yes :flow2:

Nope.

If the restaurant isn't serving what I want to eat, I'm going somewhere else.

I think that Obama will at least surround himself with talent.

Unfortunately I think you are correct. The two parties will do anything and everything they can to maintain their power and control over the people.

Which one of them is controlling you?

Obviously. I mean, after all, he has such a stellar history of picking wonderful people to associate with.

Well, whatever you think of them and what they do, they certainly are talented

Libertarians.....yeah this time is the year for sure Fucking whackaloons is what they are.

People havent been fucked over enough yet to vote the two parties out but the potential is there for both.

I think all Libertarians should show their support by having a big L branded on their foreheads.

I'll do that if you'll brand a big "G" on yours.

Racist bastard.

That's what they said about the founding fathers over 200 years ago.

WTF?

?????

EDIT:

Pretty much, but the bloodshed wont just be limited to political parties.

It'll be the French Revolution all over again.

If you ever want proof the Libertarian party is a complete joke this is it. They managed to nominate a Republican who supported:
-the war on drugs
-the Defense of Marriage Act
-the Patriot Act
-the Iraq War
-banning Wicca in the military

But what else do you expect from the party that thinks Americans are going to start shooting each other for the libertarian cause when they can't even get them to mark a ballot in the election booth.
