    Booed the civil rights act, eh? Libertarians: Proudly defending your right to deny rights to everyone else.

      Libertarians still can’t explain to me why libertarianism hasn’t won in the free market of ideas.

      You don’t have a right to access someone else’s property or services. That said, the guy who actually won the nomination said that overturning laws that force people to provide goods and services is pretty damn low in his priority list. Basically the bottom

    I actually watched some of this coverage, and was really impressed that a political ideology for children could actually take so themselves seriously. Even CNN did their best to not crack up laughing while trying to make it seem like this “convention” was a real thing.

    And then this happened, and all was right with the world.

      This guy . . . is he clapping on the 1 &3? 2 & 4? Or is he listening to some lawless rhythm in his head?

      Really, why don’t libertarians just go camping for a really, really long time? That’s basically what they want life to be like, right?

    In a 3 way race with Clinton & Trump, Gary Johnson will be the only candidate who wants to repeal the Patriot Act, curtail the NSA, repeal corporate welfare, seriously support real criminal justice reform, not use our military as the world police, and end the War on Drugs. But you guys have fun belittling him from your high horse of phony progressivism. Hope you’re Ready for Hillary!

      I don’t know, I am sure we can string together some clauses and amendments to get something going. Don’t you agree?

    So, was there just like one camera or did they capture it from some other angles too?

    Yeah I can’t take so-called Libertarians seriously (and not cause of the stripping thing). After all Bill O’Reilly, Rand Paul, etc. claim to be ones. Every so-called Libertarian I have ever met as just Republicans and using the phrase to try to claim a kind of Switzerland/neutral zone status before going on a pro-GOP, anti-Democrat tangent. But at the end of the day they support Republican causes, Republican candidates and Republican “values”. If quack like a duck....

      Yep. My neighbor claims to be a libertarian, but is actually just a Republican who likes to smoke pot.

      “Republican who likes to smoke pot.”

      This is the perfect encapsulation of so-call Libertarians.

    And, of course, being Libertarians, they all just sat there and watched because no one in the room has any idea of how to deal with problems as they arise.

    Perfectly logical quote from a Libertarian candidate:

    PS: Dave Wiegel’s Twitter coverage of the LP convention is classic.

      I’m glad his coverage is good, because he’s something of a dick. I used to kind of like him, but he plays this ridiculous contrarian (dare I say libertarian) character, and I just can’t even, anymore, with him.

      I scrolled down through a bazillion comments before I found someone who noticed that or considered it worth noting. I mean a fucking iron cross on his arm. And apparently only you and I were taken aback by that? Bueller? Bueller?
