    That's your opinion. Weak people like you always want someone to take care of them.

    Libertarians say they can stand on their own. They are the strong. Liberals are the children that need mommy and daddy.

    What do you have to offer? So far all we've gotten are insults and threats. Is that what you offer if the dems get into office?
    what is their platform other than "getting rid" of all conservatives?

    I' sure he is trying to figure out some twisted logic to show that big government isn't the one that promises to spoil people and Libertarians are not the ones saying that they don't want that.
