More libertarians are getting into government though, people like Rand and Ron who actually stick to their principles and push for what they were elected to do - The same can't be said for the idealists on the left who have if anything seen the political influence move away from them.
Obama at least was trying to solve some problems, the war in afghanistan escalated because he wants to exit it, he was forced to extend the tax cuts, and i think repealing a stupid law like DADT is excellent
There is no left in america
