Conservative to Libertarians: Drop Dead!
(Why aren't you reading this at the new website?)

---
You'll eat it and you'll like it!
So if we are all agreed that the libertarians need the conservatives a whole lot more than the conservatives need the libertarians, the question then becomes, and I mean this with all respect: Shouldn’t the libertarians just sit down and shut up?

Of course, the question of why exactly libertarians "need" the new-era, Bible-thumping, judge-hating, school-regulating, tax-and-spend Republicans remains unanswered. To make sure the PATRIOT Act is renewed? To make sure the Iraq Reconstruction continues to be botched? To add on even more benefits to Medicare? To explode our budget and trade deficits even further? To make sure the single best chance for Social Security reform in a generation is squandered? We can get most of that from the Democrats, thank you very much.

All I can say on top of what I've said before is: enjoy it while it lasts — because it won't. And I look forward to a well-deserved "I told you so..."
