Provocative political challenge thrown down to our libertarian WCF readers, by Gentle Reader Eleanor Thompson, lodged on the unofficial Weber County Democrats Facebook site:
"Here is a good explanation WHY the Libertarians among us should either plan on voting for Obama or STAY HOME. I would like to send this one out to all the Libertarians on Weber County Forum":
Ms. Thompson then hammers her point with this selected quote:.
....As long as the Democrats are opposed to Neocon wars for plunder, as advocated by Niall Ferguson and others, then libertarians would be better off voting for the Democrats. If the Democrats then stop living according to principle, all that is left for many is antisocial behavior. I worry about that. America needs to start doing the right thing. We could be a powerful and peaceful nation at the same time. We have to be both for our survival!...So what about it, O Gentle Readers of the libertarian philosophical persuasion?
Does Ms. Thompson make a valid point?
