Firstly, I couldn't care less what she thinks, she can call herself whatever she likes.

Secondly, Is there anywhere at all where she has declared herself a Libertarian? She has on numerous occasions called herself a conservative, both socially and fiscally, but I have never seen her label herself a Libertarian, nor have I seen any Libertarians call her one, all of this equivocation comes from outside commentators and people who are opposed to her.

Quote:As far as I'm concerned Republilcolibertarianazi covers her very well....but it is kind of long to say.

Then how about "Conservative"?

Quote:Notice how they run all these ideas together? If Nazi didn't have such a negative connotation they'd be using that too.

Let me get this straight, one blog calls him "Libertarian leaning" despite his being a self defined conservative with "family values" that he has no problem legislating, so that makes him a Libertarian? Sure... And Bachman supports him (as a conservative) so that must make her a Libertarian too! Hot damn.

Hey, Obama shared a burger with Medvedev, he must be a Russian!

Sorry, but that is a nonsensical combination of words, regardless of what country you are in.

Quote: No matter how much YOU PERSONALLY oppose them or disagree with them, no matter how much you claim it is a crap use of the word "Libertarian", the cold hard reality of it is that the teaparty people, the Glenn Beck fans, and so forth fall under what Glenn Beck has termed "Conservative Libertarian".

Oh, so Glen Beck is the dictionary now? Thanks for pointing that out. I guess If we're going to use Glen Beck as our source of linguistic integrity then half the world are Nazis! Hey Nazi, how are you today? Woah look at that Nazi healthcare! Damn, that's a fine looking Nazi Cheerleader! Hey, I want gays to marry, fuck I'm a Nazi!

Quote:If they called themselves "Progressive Conservatives" I would be like "There is nothing Progressive about them", but REGARDLESS, I would still be forced to accept that is what they have named themselves.

Right, but you wouldn't be calling them "progressive conservatives" or complaining about "progressives" because of the policies of these self-defined "Progressive conservatives", nor would you be making a thread entitled "Progressive conservative Michele Bachman does x"

Quote:Dont blame me..this is what Glenn Beck has done, and he made that frankenstein of a word, not me.

Yeah the fact that you propagate it has nothing to do with you! Shut up Nazi! Oh, you're not a Nazi? well it's not my fault, that's what Glen Beck has decided you are.

It's not even analogous to a Frankenstein, it's more like saying Glen Beck created a Square Circle.
