hilarious descriptions of the Republican Candidates by a libertarian.

A Libertarian bloggere, Laci Butler has a post up that is pretty funny, this is a Ron Paul only type, who really, really thinks that the Republican party is trying to throw the election. Her description of Santorum is amaziing here is a snippit

As a atheist and a moderate, I can find any numerous causes to fit into. There are plenty of petitions to sign or Facebook pages to like. However, as a moderate atheist who finds herself to be a registered republican, I have only one Facebook page to like. It's the one I started. I'm not much on high fives, but, dammit, if the situation so calls for celebratory fist bump, it ruins it when your doing it to yourself. With that said, I'll fist bump myself to death before I utter a single word of praise for Rick "holy hell did he just say that" Santorum.

How is this man still a contender? Who in their right mind would send this man money? Don't they realize that funding such a fool will only encourage him to continue to speak out loud? I feel a sudden urge to gather up an arm full of papers so that when he makes a public statement, I can throw them in the air and run in circles flailing my arms and yelling "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE". What a radical maniac. I am at a point now, that I truly believe the largest supporter of his campaign run absolutely has to be Obama himself.

A lot of libertarians switched their registration to Republican to vote for Paul in the Primaries in closed primary states. The person who pasted the link I took this from to my facebook page, was the head of the county libertarian party until he re-registered as a republican a couple of months ago to vote in the Republican Primary here in DE. Enough did change their registration that the party almost lost enough membership statewide to risk the Libertarian Party not qualifying for the state ballot. After the Primary, we have another open registration period and my friend will switch back. And yes, he is an Atheist as am I, though I am a solid Democrat. Quite a number of libertarian party members are Atheists and Agnostics and are social liberals.
