		<description>You can put any qualifier onto the front of Republican that you want and they are still vial scum IMHO. I have not engaged in a Vulcan Mind Meld with you so I don&#039;t know, but MORE IMPORTANTLY, I don&#039;t care what distinction you think exists. I call a Pox on every subgroup of Rethuglicans, and until they can actually demonstrate by action, rather than words, what they believe, to Hell with them all.</description>

		<description>I still say the &quot;Obama-is-a-Muslim&quot; thing is a simple Libertarian dog whistle designed to be anti-Muslim and pro-Libertarian, to the benefit of Libertarians in both parties, here at BMG as well as at RMG. I&#039;d be psyched to vote for someone I thought was a Muslim, it&#039;s the Mormons and superficial Christians I am afraid of.</description>

		<description>Because you are Blanche, you ARE! This alleged distinction reminds me of Saruman trying to convert Gandalf to work with Sauron but in their own way and thereby control the evil from behind the scenes. If you seriously believe that this racist dog whistle by some IDIOT calling the President a Muslim when he has already self-identified as Christian is the way to &quot;Win Friends and Influence People&quot;, then a Pox on your pathetic distinction and a Pox on all Rethuglicans.</description>

		<description>The LibertarianRepublicans have separated themselves away from the social conservative Republicans. You&#039;re still seeing the GOP and Republicans as one big party where everyone pretty much agrees with each other, but there has been a huge split. If you believe same-sex couples should have equal rights and people shouldn&#039;t be lashed for having sex outside of marriage, then you agree with the LibertarianRepublicans. You can answer Dan that yes, you agree with some of their beliefs. I also agree with them that people should not be lashed or stoned to death for sex outside of marriage, but I don&#039;t think any Christians would agree with Muslims that we should still stone adulterers, Christ is on record about that one, but Muslims think he was kind of a pussy I guess.</description>

		<description>Yesterday, August 1st was described by Rethuglicans as being a day that will live in infamy, like 12/7/41 and 9/11/2001. Libertarian Republicans are simply Republicans who know there brand is being damaged by the Idiotic Tea Party so they have to give themselves a new name. But they are still primarily republicans, which means they hate women, they hate gays and lesbians, and they hate poor people. IMHO, the need for Rethuglicans to utterly dominate women via birth control is in no way different than the &quot;State&quot; attempting to utterly dominate women elsewhere in the world. How often do I need to hear &quot;Jobs, Jobs, Jobs&quot; but all you pathetic republicans do is restrict both birth control and a women&#039;s right to control her own body.</description>

		<description>For a Troll you have unbelievably thin skin. All I did was list all the tools in your tool box, or in other words, I read your beads, and boo hoo hoo. I further note that you have been warned about comments that are off topic and are nothing more than shiny objects. If you want to discuss Elizabeth Warren&#039;s position on Carbon Tax or explain your pathetic need to see a transcript for your dog whistling, then write your own damn posts instead of trying to subvert everyone else&#039;s post with this garbage. As I said before: Yawn.</description>

		<description>From Allen West:

Look, Debbie, I understand that after I departed the House floor you directed your floor speech comments directly towards me. Let me make myself perfectly clear, you want a personal fight, I am happy to oblige. You are the most vile, unprofessional ,and despicable member of the US House of Representatives. If you have something to say to me, stop being a coward and say it to my face, otherwise, shut the heck up. Focus on your own congressional district!

I am bringing your actions today to our Majority Leader and Majority Whip and from this time forward, understand that I shall defend myself forthright against your heinous characterless behavior……which dates back to the disgusting protest you ordered at my campaign hqs, October 2010 in Deerfield Beach.

You have proven repeatedly that you are not a Lady, therefore, shall not be afforded due respect from me!

Steadfast and Loyal

Congressman Allen B West (R-FL)

And all because Wasserman Schultz blabbed this in congress:

&quot;The gentleman from Florida. who represents thousands of Medicare beneficiaries, as do I, is supportive of this plan that would increase costs for Medicare beneficiaries, unbelievable from a Member from South Florida,&quot; Wasserman Schultz said, saying the legislation &quot;slashes Medicaid and critical investments essential to winning the future in favor of protecting tax breaks for Big Oil, millionaires, and companies who ship American jobs overseas.&quot;

Poor Allen is wound way too tight.
Don&#039;tcha just love these civil war re-enactments!</description>

		<description>Hey All,

Asking what Prof. Warren&#039;s position on carbon tax is now on the scale of asking for Obama&#039;s transcripts.  Can you believe mike cote???????  

I only bring up grades when people call Romney stupid or moron.  I think I am owed a thanks now that more people are careful what they write, I have actually cleaned up the language here.  

Anyway, if you do know her position on carbon taxes, please let me know or when she is appearing on a local radio because I will be the first caller, if she takes any from the horde made up of people like me.</description>

		<description>Which question did I not answer.

1) I don&#039;t agree with any of their beliefs?

or 

2) None?

When I wrote the following:

&lt;blockquote&gt;The only republicans I can honestly say I have ever agreed with are Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln. The rest can pound sand for all I care.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
I believe this answers both questions, in that if you create a Venn Diagram showing the beliefs of Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln and the diagram them with the beliefs of the Libertarian Republicans, assuming that anywhere in this diagram there is an intersection, then within that intersection (assuming one exists, which I see &lt;strong&gt;NO Evidence of ANY&lt;/strong&gt;), then by the associative property, I would agree with only those items where the beliefs of Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln intersect with Libertarian Republicans. Since I doubt that any such intersection exists, then I further answered your question.

Now please answer this question, why are you such a Troll? What possible gratification do you get from highjacking nearly every post on this site for you insipid rantings. It isn&#039;t my job to provide you with:
a) Transcripts
b) GPAs
c) Carbon Tax positions.
d) or whatever shiny object you want to distract everyone with while we wait for your guy to release his tax returns.

Again - Yawn.</description>

<p>2) None?</p>
<p>When I wrote the following:</p>
<blockquote><p>The only republicans I can honestly say I have ever agreed with are Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln. The rest can pound sand for all I care.
</p></blockquote>
<p>I believe this answers both questions, in that if you create a Venn Diagram showing the beliefs of Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln and the diagram them with the beliefs of the Libertarian Republicans, assuming that anywhere in this diagram there is an intersection, then within that intersection (assuming one exists, which I see <strong>NO Evidence of ANY</strong>), then by the associative property, I would agree with only those items where the beliefs of Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln intersect with Libertarian Republicans. Since I doubt that any such intersection exists, then I further answered your question.</p>
<p>Now please answer this question, why are you such a Troll? What possible gratification do you get from highjacking nearly every post on this site for you insipid rantings. It isn&#8217;t my job to provide you with:<br />
a) Transcripts<br />
b) GPAs<br />
c) Carbon Tax positions.<br />
d) or whatever shiny object you want to distract everyone with while we wait for your guy to release his tax returns.</p>
<p>Again &#8211; Yawn.</p>

		<description>Who called the entire democratic congressional progressive caucus a bunch of communists, is someone we are supposed to take seriously? I think not.

For those of you who don&#039;t know Allen West, his op/ed says it all:

		<description>I made my point when I showed that Scott Brown advocated torture and &lt;del&gt;show trials&lt;/del&gt; military tribunals. Torture is wrong. There isn&#039;t any &quot;public&quot; or &quot;private&quot; about it. The formal policy of torture and abuse ordered by the prior administration &lt;b&gt;from the Oval Office&lt;/b&gt; was immoral &#8212; and Scott Brown supports it.

That &quot;stuff&quot; does bother me.</description>

		<description>Michaelbate was referring to.  If you are asking my opinion if water boarding is torture, I would publicly say yes, but have it in the tool box if we capture a POS who has information.

For example. Do you know Congressman Allen West of Florida?  While serving in Iraq, he started interrogating a suspect on the battle field.  I believe an IED went off and he wanted to know where the other bombs were.  So when the suspect wouldn&#039;t talk, he pulled his gun and shot it near his head and asked him again.  Even though he received important intel, it was against the Army operating manual, so he was reprimanded.  That stuff doesn&#039;t bother me, just needs to be kept quit, know what I am saying?

For those who don&#039;t know Allen West, his commercial brings a tear to my eyes, take look.

		<description>This is standard-issue mud-slinging &quot;booga-booga&quot; from the GOP election machine.

The only person who should care if Barack Obama is Christian, Muslim, or Non-Religious is Michelle Obama. (Saying this is very conservative- in a non-political sense.)

I couldn&#039;t care less because it doesn&#039;t matter. All that matters is how the man will govern.

Also, being a dentist is about the patient&#039;s teeth.</description>

		<description>But I disagree with your assessment of Dondero&#039;s motives -- if he were defending Ron Paul, he wouldn&#039;t accuse him of being a truther or claim that he refuses to shake the hands of gay people.  He&#039;s not stupid, his article was used just as he intended, to trash Paul.  

Dondero has had a long and messy feud with Paul and Paul supporters (the falling-out stems from Paul&#039;s anti-war views after 9/11 -- Dondero is a &quot;pro-defense libertarian&quot;).  He hasn&#039;t supported Paul in either of his recent Presidential campaigns and even considered running &quot;a balls-to-the-wall campaign&quot; against Paul for his Congressional seat in 2008.

		<description>I believe actions speak louder than words and watching the Rethuglicans wage their stupid war on women and against marriage equality, I would no sooner be a Rethuglican than Anne Frank would be a Nazi. The only republicans I can honestly say I have ever agreed with are Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln. The rest can pound sand for all I care.</description>

		<description>The post he refers to in no way endorces what Dondero said.  If anything it appears he was quoted to set up a mockery of his pretty lame defense of Ron Paul.  I think it&#039;s safe to say (to the extent you can generalize about BMG at all) that we do not approve of his views.</description>

		<description>...was Dondero.  He&#039;s only named at the top of the Bluemass article, but the entire second half is quoting from him.  He&#039;s the major source for the article.

Yes, there was a good discussion about Ron Paul, but there was no mention (except by myself) of Dondero&#039;s more controversial views.</description>

		<description>it seems obvious and Bob noted it in his FP note that there was a good discussion in the comments.  Nor do I think that the post in general was about Dendero.  It quoted someone in the campaign at that time or a witness to what was going on at that time.  To somehow link that to pushing campaign literature with Dondero&#039;s approval being highlighted is something very different.  

I think to can tell the difference between the two.</description>

		<description>I am not Maher fan myself and loath Limbaugh but neither are in any way relevant to the Brown/Warren race. Bringing up either is just a weak attempt to change the subject.

So to repeat: you don&#039;t have any problem with people deliberately trying to lie about your beliefs? Really? And are you really that stupid that you don&#039;t understand why people are trying to paint Obama as a Muslim? Are you really that dense?</description>

Please, anyone, can you answer those questions for me? 

Is Human Rights no longer part of the libertarian agenda?

 &lt;/blockquote&gt;I guess this is why he fell out of love with Ron Paul, because he thought he was too non-interventionist.&lt;blockquote&gt;Anonymous, only problem with your expressed belief is that 99.9% of all non-interventionists say precisely that... &quot;we&#039;re not pacifists, if they come over here we want to fight back, blah, blah, blah...&quot;

Yet when it comes to the fight back part, they are amazingly pacifist. &quot;Oh no, we can&#039;t do that, that would be intervening in their internal affairs, blah, blah, blah...&quot;

I really do wish there was such a thing as a &quot;walk softly, carry a big stick&quot; non-interventionist libertarian out there. Unfortunately every single one who expresses that sentiment turns out to be just a &quot;walk softly,&quot; type, without the big stick.

		<description>when there are two parties to blame for wars and you can still reap the benefits of the wars anyhow. But libertarians are really the cause of the wars and the terrorism, libertarianism itself and libertarians in person. You are right though that we need to end these wars, absolutely, at the same time we end libertarianism.</description>

		<description>I just thought it was noteworthy that Dondero was quoted at length in a front page Bluemass article.  You seemed to like what he had to say because he was dishing dirt on his former boss, Republican Ron Paul.  The fact that he&#039;s not a big fan of Muslims, which might explain his anti-Paul/pro-war views, didn&#039;t seem to trouble anyone back in December when his agenda coincided with yours.

Basically, I&#039;m saying that your use of Dondero is not so different than Brown&#039;s -- you&#039;re both willing to cite his opinion as authoritative when you agree with it and it suits your purpose.</description>

		<description>I guess it was after reading the comments that I got the impression no one was mentioning the Libertarian thing. But the posts themselves certainly included the blog name, I was wrong. Though they certainly didn&#039;t mention his views on gay marriage and reproductive rights. Well, they aren&#039;t for federal benefits of marriage, but in terms of what people are allowed to do, no one should interfere:&lt;blockquote&gt;Alas, as Mr. Gershon fully admits, and as we&#039;ve long suspected, it&#039;s not about sexual liberties; rather it&#039;s about living off the government dole.
Our libertarian Republican view of gay marriage of course, is go for it. You wanna get married. Fine. Go to a park, hire a couple lawyers, have a big gay wedding party, and Matzeltoff! Who are we to interfere, or anyone else for that matter?
Why do two gays or lesbians need government&#039;s sanction to get married? What&#039;s wrong with marriage privatization?&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>Both Dems and Rep&#039;s love war, so long as it is theirs.  People on BMG still defend sending soldiers to die in Afghanistan b/c Obama sent the instead of Bush.  Now both Mitt and Barack appear to be with fine with Israel bombing Iran.  How crazy is that?  We need to get out of these entanglements, out of South Korea, let Japan rebuild and pay for their own military, and stop wasting our money and soldiers.  

We really need a third party.</description>

		<description>There are Socialist Libertarians and Libertarian Democrats who go along with Democrats about things like carbon taxes and gun laws and regulations and higher taxes and protecting the borders, but they justify those things by knowing they&#039;re taking the Democratic party and the county in a more libertarian direction in other ways.</description>

		<description>The BMG posts on this subject have left out the name of the guys blog and the reasons for his anti-Muslim attack on Obama. They want to just make him seem crazy and intolerant and embarrassing, but they agree with his reasons for being anti-sharia law, it&#039;s about reproductive rights and individual freedom and gay marriage. By leaving that out, they avoid having to admit that they pretty much agree with the guy about everything.</description>

		<description>Personally, both can be very funny. The hypocrisy to be outraged by Rush for what he says, but Maher is considered &quot;fantastic&quot; according to mikecote, is ridiculous.  

If some one called me something I am not, I wouldnt act like its a bad thing.  I would certainly react in a much more positive way, explaining there is nothing wrong being a Muslim (in this example), but I am actually xyz.</description>

I, for one, would not call Paul&#039;s remarks in his newsletter &quot;silly,&quot; yahoo.</description>

		<description>His blog is called &quot;LibertarianRepublican&quot;:&lt;blockquote&gt;About Libertarian Republican

What&#039;s a Libertarian Republican?

Libertarian Republicans are libertarians who believe in working within the Republican Party to advance the agenda of liberty. Many libertarian Republicans are former member of the Libertarian Party who have left to join the GOP. Others keep their current affiliation with the Libertarian Party while still participating in Republican politics, as well. Still others are lifelong Republicans who have always felt a kinship to the libertarian movement, and libertarian beliefs. Most libertarian Republicans are active to some degree with the Republican Liberty Caucus, which represents the libertarian wing of the GOP. 

Libertarian Republican Beliefs:

Less Taxes!, Cut Spending, Deregulation, Privatization, Protect Property Rights, Energy Independence, School Choice, Repeal Affirmative Action, Say No to the Nanny-State, End Victimless Crime Laws, Oppose Political Correctness, Protect our Gun Rights, Secure our Borders, Strong Military, &amp; Support our Troops!&lt;/blockquote&gt;They also believe in gay marriage, even though they also usually profess to be pro-life because even embryos have gun rights. 

Want to see something funny? There&#039;s an advertisement on the LibertarianRepublican &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.libertarianrepublican.net/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;front page&lt;/a&gt; for a blog called - i&#039;m not making this up - &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.intercourseandconception.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;IntercourseAndConception&lt;/a&gt;! I love the call for religious freedom that includes &quot;Objectionists&quot;&lt;blockquote&gt;A founding leader must work both to heal old rifts and to embrace new groups. Leaders of the 21st Century must tolerate Jews, Baha’is, Objectionists, and all other religious communities if they hope to build a lasting legacy.&lt;/blockquote&gt;And then a post about LGBT freedom:&lt;blockquote&gt;A COUPLE CELEBRATIONS OF LOVE
1:53 am by Joseph Dunsay. Filed under: Freedom of Assembly,Freedom of Speech,Freedom of the Press,Sex
The New York City, USA Gay Pride Parade was today (www.nycpride.org). It celebrates the freedom to have romantic relationships with whomever one chooses and reminds the public of the a historic milestone in the struggle for equality. In 1969 the Stonewall Riots occurred in New York City. In those years, the police regularly raided gay bars and arrested patrons at those bars who were not harming anyone. When the police broke into the Stonewall Inn, New York City’s queers fought back with the Stonewall Riots. Activists shaped frustrations into a long term movement to secure rights for LGBT individuals. They held the first Gay Pride Parade on the one year anniversary of the Stonewall Riots. Half a century later, the tradition is still going strong.

Parades were an important part of 20th Century activism. The internet is a major player in 21st Century activism. Nivea is paradoxically using the internet to promote romantic face to face contact (www.nationalpdaday.com). June 20th, 2012 was National PDA Day, where PDA stands for “Public Display of Affection”. Nivea encouraged people to kiss, hug, or hold hands in public and document their action online. In some sense, this is a Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender and Straight holiday. Hopefully, the idea will become an annual tradition.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>Furthermore, I am sure you are perfectly well aware that Obama does not have the ability to return Maher&#039;s contribution because the super PAC is not under his control and his campaign may not coordinate with the PAC. So clearly this is just another lame attempt at misdirection.

Of course there is not necessarily anything offensive about being referred to as a Muslim if you are one. But it is deeply offensive to lie about someone&#039;s religion with the intention of building on anti-Islamic bigotry.

So just for the record, you don&#039;t care if we falsely characterize your beliefs?</description>

		<description>(to quote Dondero) I would say it is Scott Brown and the Republicans, who consistently show their contempt for American democratic values.  Brown during his first campaign called for torture and military tribunals to deal with terrorists.  How can you be more un-American than that?  It is a fundamental American ideal that anyone accused of crime (any crime) has a right to a fair trial with a vigorous defense.  This is one of the ideals that this country was founded on, and, to the extent that we stray from that, the terrorists have won.</description>

		<description>Dan, this is a really weak attempt to change the subject.  Please address whether you approve of Brown&#039;s actions in this case.  Further discussions about Bill Maher or other distractions will be deleted as off-topic.</description>

		<description>The point, Dan, is that insisting Obama is a Muslim has all sorts of implications about his character and qualifications for being President.  To a significant portion of the American public, &quot;Muslim&quot; is equivalent to:

- Different
- Not Christian
- Black / Not &quot;Anglo-Saxon&quot; / (Chose your own racist expletive)
- Foreign / Not Native Born / Un-American
- A Terrosist / Terrosist sympathizer
- An Apologist for America / Traitor
- Unqualified

You may not care if someone calls you a &quot;Muslim&quot; but supporters of the President are rightly appalled by the rather clear implications as detailed above.  

This whole debate reminds me of the cop who called Crawford a &quot;Monday&quot; recently and was fired.  What&#039;s the big deal in calling someone a day of the week?  It&#039;s what the term means to the speaker that matters.</description>

		<description>but Scott Brown is using this nut job in his campaign, he needs to address why he thought it was a good idea to introduce us to this guy and why he values his opinion.  No matter how you try to deflect (and you are doing a bad job), that&#039;s the question.</description>

		<description>Bill Maher is fantastic, and I personally hope that he goes on pointing out what an ignorant idiot Palin is. Because as long as Maher has the right to speak truth to power, you can continue to pollute this site with your ignorant demands for transcripts and GPAs and other Birther garbage. Nate Silver still has Obama winning the electoral college at 293.4 to 244.6 for your dufus. Troll!</description>

		<description>Who think that Muslims are terrorists?  Let&#039;s assume Republicans do, but they won&#039;t vote for Obama, regardless.  But Obama needs to make it perfectly clear to Dems and Ind&#039;s that he is not Muslim b/c he fears losing their vote?  I guess there are lots of dumb people in your Dem Party and my Ind Party.

So it&#039;s okay to use Maher&#039;s money, correct?</description>

		<description>...but it happens not to be true and this is a huge dogwhistle to the Muslim=terrorist crowd.

Bill Maher doesn&#039;t speak for the President and I am not aware of the President touting Maher&#039;s words in his own ads or fundraising letters the way Brown has in this example.</description>

		<description>Let me think, Bill Maher has called Palin the &quot;C&quot; word, &quot;B&quot; word, her kid the &quot;S&quot; word.  Why the outrage when your side are the masters of it.

Personally, why is it offensive to be called a Muslim?  Someone called me that, I would care less.</description>
