Any word on the over/under when folks go from thinking...these guys make total sense to...umm...ok crazy uncle Lester.

 

Ron/Rand Paul have the 5 minute rule, but with 3 on the stage, questions, breaks, etc. I'd probably put it closer to the 22 minute mark.

To be fair that's a lot slower than it usually takes Trump to do the same on the Republican stage.

[Blarg]

They have only three less people than a Linux convention.

[ABC]

Odds on GJ calling someone a pussy?

So this event already took place and they're airing part one of it tonight, and part two next Friday.

 

Compelling.

[Angel Oracle]

Hey, it's a start to just air it, delay or not.

Which one of the 3 wore a horrible pantsuit? 

[Vegas Halo Fan]

Where's my man Vermin? I read that he was seeking the Libertarian nomination.

[Spirit]

Sounds like 'merica

Everyone has a little crazy in them.

[Jay]

so did anyone watch?

 

I DVR'ed it, haven't watched yet.

[Angels#1Fan]

Gee, I missed the anti government anarchy debate..oh well.

 

Anyone know if they debated the privatization of the FDA and how they intend to keep America's food safe with a private sector business set up in someones garage?

All twelve libertarians are running? Who would cast the deciding vote?

Libertarians just can't accept that Ayn Rand who was an opponent of the welfare state did indeed collect SS despite her railing against social programs!  Federal records obtained through a Freedom of Information act request confirm the Social Security benefits. She was a hypocrite that pushed the notion that government shouldn't help people. Of course when she needed help from the government she gladly took it.

 

Didn't Rand write that accepting any government controls is delivering oneself into gradual enslavement? I believe she referred to those people as moochers and looters! lol

She influenced Rush's 2112.  

 

There it is.  The beginning and end of my interest in Ayn Rand. 

[Spirit]

Unless she was hot.  Was she hot?  Because then maybe I'd increase my interest. 

[Blarg]

No. She was Russian peasant ugly but a Damn good writer.
