Arguing against the Libertarian Party today, as some libertarians do ponderously, is making a Straw Man Argument, meant to make the arguer seem daring intellectually.
I took a swipe at the Libertarian Party’s two goofballs, Gary Johnson and Bill Weld, for their statism in “Someone Should Tell Bill Kristol Dwarf Tossing Is Cruel.”
Before that, in 2013, some clown reared his head to run for office, so I wrote, “Beware Of Liberals In Libertarian Drag,” to expose how like the Left these lite libertarians were, especially in agitating over identity politics.
Otherwise, move on, nothing here to see. Real Rightists have never taken the Libertarian Party seriously. (As have we never veered from the immigration restrictionist position, despite damnation from a lot of libertarians.)

UPDATE (9/10): It should be obvious:
The Party is a joke. But libertarianism, the paleo kind, is never a joke.
UPDATE (1/5/018): Jess Sessions should cease and desist from his drug war, or be made to.
Principled libertarians were NOT divided on Iraq. & principled libertarians are never confused about devolution of power away from the Federales to states and to individuals.

Really? Now libertarians support the federal goons' drug war? https://t.co/gzFitlMDsb https://t.co/CLwnVApch9

California cut-flower industry was killed, among many reasons, due to trade policy. Now #JeffSessions, who says he's #AmericaFirst, wants to take away the #cannabis business from this state & others. https://t.co/0ARIX1fCBf
