All of these have been achieved with most of The Greatest Statist WW2 Generation kicking and screaming. Democrats also want males to be sacrificed for females and children during wartime, and take away our college loans unless we register for Selective Sacrifice. Legislating altruism IS legislating religion. Roosevelt and Truman once claimed that those who oppose their social programs, their compulsory taxation, and their draft enslavement are "traitors to Christianity." The Democratic Party have the altruist morality of the Catholic Church because most of you worship male sacrifice on Sunday morning, and male sacrifice in history classes. I am not a male sacrifice for other people. Dare to curse Roosevelt and Truman. Democrats have also outlawed discrimination against Catholic people, and even accept Catholic people such as John Kerry and Nancy Pelosi into your party! No wonder you can't defend birth control or abortion choice. Catholics are scum who treat their friends and workers like shit, in every friendship and workplace I've ever been around them. The Klan seriously needs to attack Catholics, not blacks or Jews. Fight racial and sexual discrimination, not religious discrimination, because people can change their beliefs. Dare to curse Catholic people and the Vatican Masters. Libertarians stand against the military draft, mandatory high school, and mandatory national service.

The card itself I found amusing (especially “Take the World’s Smallest Political Quiz!”). But the comments thread really kind of annoyed me. Libertarians are all misogynist white males, people said. Libertarians are just all rich and selfish and don’t want to share their money, people said. Libertarians always vote for Bush and conservative Republicans. Libertarians reap the benefits of things like public roads and local policemen but don’t want to pay for them. Libertarians are all gun-toting nutjobs who can’t hold coherent or logical conversations. A lot of the commenters were frantically arguing against wildly inaccurate versions of libertarian political philosophy based on a conversation they’d had with some guy at the gun store or something they’d read some libertarian commenter say on a blog somewhere. I’m not talking about all the commenters (or Amanda or sabotabby), obviously, but it seemed most had never read any classical liberal writing or any modern libertarian writers. But it didn’t matter. They just knew what it was all about.

Nice. Bingo card mentality summed up in just two words. "Mine!" "Share?" Never bin over here.

“Mine!”

“Share?”
