“Many libertarians are basically conservatives who are either gay or druggies”

Well since Seavey Todd is a libertarian perhaps that puts a whole new spin on his quest for a girlfriend? We already know he’s a eunuch.

I think D’Souza’s almost stupid enough to be one of the SadlyNo commenters. Given his own smug and juvenile approach to debating such matters, he should count himself very, very lucky that more atheists and libertarians don’t react with annoyance to him by vowing to celebrate the holidays going door to door singing “Free Will” by Rush, in hopes of liberating mentally-abused children across the nation from a lifetime of servitude to an imaginary spirit-ruler. Atheists and libertarians alike tend to be vastly more polite than religious people, though, so we generally choose not to upset anyone — whether that’s the correct moral decision in the long run is hard to say. I expect to address this topic more often after the Super Duper Tuesday primaries, depending on who wins…

If they’re attacking and ridiculing you, it means you must be doing something right. I’ve gotten my knocks too.

Anyway, what do you make of Dinesh D’Souza’s recent observation, “Many libertarians are basically conservatives who are either gay or druggies or people who generally find the conservative moral agenda too restrictive.” See http://news.aol.com/newsbloggers/2007/12/21/how-atheists-celebrate-christmas/
