Where Politics and Rockabilly Become Strangely Fused

Tony Sarrecchia understands what makes Sean Hannity angry

Here is a post from the Bob Barr website blog.

“The Republican Party was once the party of small government and individual liberty, but it has devolved into a megalith of social conservatism (occasionally boarding on theocratic dogma), a behemoth sized government and an eradicator of civil liberties,” writes Sarrecchia  in the Kennesaw State University newspaper. “Libertarians want a country where, as long as force or fraud is not involved, individuals are free to do as they wish; much like the old Republican Party.  The problem for Libertarians is raising public awareness.  Barr’s name recognition  would go a long way to raising that public awareness–something that would spell disaster for the Republican Party.  And Hannity knows it.”

Sarrecchia hit the nail squarely on the head with his conclusion:

  •  
    • While the democrats will tell you the government programs are the solution to all our problems, and Republicans believe government program growth is necessary in this time of slogan wars, Libertarians believe the only good government program is the one that just ended.  The unalienable rights of the individual to pursue life, liberty and happiness in whatever way that individual defines (barring force or fraud), those terms are paramount to the Libertarian party and most government programs that run counter to that end.  Regardless of Bob Barr winning the election, or even the Libertarian nomination, he can carry the Libertarian message to the people.
  • And that is why Sean Hannity is so angry.
