Angry Libertarians

Libertarian-leaning Republicans are also hog-wrestling mad about what has become of their party under George Bush. Mr Bush has presided over the fastest growth in federal spending since the Great Society in the 1960s. He put the Republican seal of approval on the biggest intrusion of federal power into the classroom in history (No Child Left Behind), the most expensive public-works programme ever (the 2005 highway bill) and the largest new entitlement programme since the creation of Medicare and Medicaid (the prescription-drug benefit). He launched an open-ended “war on terror”. He rode roughshod over states' rights on issues such as assisted suicide. And he has expanded the government's power to eavesdrop on its citizens.

Doesn't matter. Do you think 99% republicans vote for their party because of such dazzling and inspiring figures such as John McCain, George Bush junior, Poppy Bush, and Bob Dole?

At least Bush is better than Gore/Kerry/Obama/Edwards/Dean/Clinton
