Dead and gone...

I'm glad that you chose to capitalise the "L" in your comment's usage of libertarian. I consider myself to be libertarian, yet at the same time consider the Libertarian Party to be an obscene parody of libertarianism. The LP's leadership has shown itself over the last eight years to care little of liberty, and much about their personal affection for property (more on property later, as my view is non-standard from most American libertarians). The LP's Platform was gutted and diluted several years ago, yet still takes a much stronger position about the rights of gays than either of the two mainstream parties. Tell me please, just which President came up with the asinine policy of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" for the US Military?

From The Current Libertarian Party Platform:

1.2: Personal Privacy
We support the protections provided by the Fourth Amendment to be secure in our persons, homes, and property. Only actions that infringe on the rights of others can properly be termed crimes. We favor the repeal of all laws creating "crimes" without victims, such as the use of drugs for medicinal or recreational purposes.
1.3: Personal Relationships
Sexual orientation, preference, gender, or gender identity should have no impact on the rights of individuals by government, such as in current marriage, child custody, adoption, immigration or military service laws. Consenting adults should be free to choose their own sexual practices and personal relationships. Government does not have the authority to define, license or restrict personal relationships.
1.4: Abortion
Recognizing that abortion is a sensitive issue and that people can hold good-faith views on all sides, we believe that government should be kept out of the matter, leaving the question to each person for their conscientious consideration.
1.5: Crime and Justice
Government exists to protect the rights of every individual including life, liberty and property. Criminal laws should be limited to violation of the rights of others through force or fraud, or deliberate actions that place others involuntarily at significant risk of harm. Individuals retain the right to voluntarily assume risk of harm to themselves. We support restitution of the victim to the fullest degree possible at the expense of the criminal or the negligent wrongdoer. We oppose reduction of constitutional safeguards of the rights of the criminally accused. The rights of due process, a speedy trial, legal counsel, trial by jury, and the legal presumption of innocence until proven guilty, must not be denied. We assert the common-law right of juries to judge not only the facts but also the justice of the law.

Anyone who hedges on any of the above platform planks cannot be an (L/l)ibertarian. The LP's leadership and many of its current members attempt to grossly distort the natural individual liberties with arguments of "States' Rights", pretending that an individual state's theft of natural liberty is somehow a different sort of theft, than is the Federal Government's theft of natural liberty. Those who take this position often claim they want to return to the Original Constitution's intent, which is another deception, as the Fourteenth Amendment supersedes the original text, and cannot just simply be hurdled over, because thinking about two guys playing stable the pony in the back forty corral, cause troubling rumblings in the dark repressed recesses of their subconscious. The LP has been polluted by fainéant Republicans who stood idly by while their party became corrupted, and now flee from its horror with loud denunciations, attempting to absolve themselves of their own personal responsibility for its decline. They have elevated all private property ownership absurdly to the place of natural liberty, yet liberty is far more than bellying up to an all you can eat buffet of avarice and greed. I am still a registered member of the LP, but have been disenfranchised; marginalised from it by these faux-liberty-bois. They have categorised myself, and others within the Party who believe in real liberty, with what they believe to be the denigrating label of "Anarchist Wing of The LP". These clowns still remain cluelessly amazed after discovering most of those they catergorised as such, mirthfully embraced the label. What kind of American does not feel the strings of anarchism tugging at their very soul?

I heartily accept the motto, "That government is best which governs least"; and I should like to see it acted up to more rapidly and systematically. Carried out, it finally amounts to this, which also I believe--"That government is best which governs not at all"; and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which they will have. Government is at best but an expedient; but most governments are usually, and all governments are sometimes, inexpedient.

Henry David Thoreau, "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience"

The assertions that a proper state is a weak, anemic state, and that all private property ownership is a first tier right, posits a paradox of failure. Natural Rights to private property ownership extend only out as far as an individual "occupies" said property. All other forms of private property ownership are gifts of a robust state, and that includes all forms of absentee ownership, legacies, and intellectual property. Just how the hell do they expect to continue possessing these state-granted complex forms of property ownership in the absence of a vigorous state power without initiating force against others better situated to assert their natural rights to its ownership?

Welcome to the libertarian-left...

Which is why, of course, he subverted the OLC. To do otherwise would have meant treason - if dissent was to become a terrorist. Any honorable person should have resigned rather than sell his soul that way.
