I like her.
I think she ownes that camel, she certainly earned it...
Maybe we should start with a new "oscar-reward" in the shape of a camel... it would be a good reward for such courage.

I enjoyed her monolog, but still congress which we gave to the GOP does nothing to stop that treasonous ba$t@r*. So, what good is the GOP, to me just rinos.

There is always the Libertarians. Personal liberty, personal freedom, personal rights and personal responsibility.
That sounds an awful lot like the America we grew up believing in.

Yeah Paul, I agree but then as happened in 1992 you wind up with a Clinton in the White House. He won with only 42% of the vote. Bush Sr. lost with only 37% (not that he was anymore than the lesser of two evils), because Perot took about 18%. So, if my true choice had not run and split the Libertarians from the so call conservatives, Monica would not have stained her dress, and Billy would not have had to embarrass himself by asking the impeachment court "what is sex?", although being married to Hillary I do understand.
It seems to me that voting for the best person will most likely put the worst in office.
I am a Constitutional Libertarian, and yet I vote for the most likely and least offensive candidate, not always the best one. Sorry.

Three way campaigns just result in the best loser getting the job. If two candidates are similar they'll split that vote and the guy that the majority opposed gets in. If we have multiple parties we need to have a preliminary vote among all candidates and then have a run off between the top two to settle it. And we know that won't happen.

My problem with voting vor the lesser of two evils is that I would still be voting for the evil. I could never expect the country to turn from evil if I continued to vote for it.
I can't resolve that if there is a Libertarian running.

Yep, sometimes it hurts.
