Steven Green:

I stopped voting Libertarian for local candidates, leaving lots of blanks on my ballot. Next year, I’m not sure which party I’ll support for President, much less which candidate. From here, it looks as if the Republicans have become wrong and corrupt, the Democrats are stupid and corrupt, and the Libertarians have gone plain crazy.

I feel his pain.

"For the common good."

At least he had something different to vote for besides Ds & Rs. I have yet to see a third party candidate locally here.

I don't think Ron Paul and other libertarians are categorically against the war. I believe that what he has said on the campaign trail, and I agree with, is that only Congress has the power to declare war and that this war has not been lawfully authorized. That's one point, the other point is that because, you or anyone else don't perceive the same threats to the nation as everyone else, that does not make you "plain crazy". I don't approve of the war. I don't because I hold a very restricted view of what is in our national interest and what our nation's role in the world should be.

For the war in Iraq the Congress declared war, they just didn't call it a Declaration of War (which is not required) and they verbally fudged their positions later (fairly common as well) or claimed they voted without reading the wording (admiting incompentanc).

Anyone that says the war is Illegal has a beef with the Congress, not the President.

From here, it looks as if the Republicans have become wrong and corrupt, the Democrats are stupid and corrupt

I thought it was the other way around.

Why don't we meet half way. Both parties are stupid, wrong and corrupt.
