That means one dead Centrist, and a V for Barack Obama. Are you getting a taste of how useless your views are?
Anarcho capitalists don't vote, and if they did, they most certainly wouldn't vote for socialists. Your assumptions are getting weird.

I'm sure wherever you live, it's every bit as flaccid as Europe.
Cambodia. It's anything but flacid, (though it represents very little to do with my political views).
Dooble said:
And of course you don't get what I said. You're a Centrist.
I'm a voluntaryist, though in modern American terms I'd probably be considered a hard right libertarian. I believe in non aggression, personal responsibility, and very little else.
Dooble said:
Exactly. See, even a Centrist understands (sometimes) that he has moral obligations.
My moral obligation to others is not to commit acts of aggression against them, and to behave in a way that doesn't have a negative impact on their lives. I also have moral obligations to myself which may include helping other people, but that's for me to decide.

Actually, being stoned is a great indicator for employers, church leaders, responsible neighbors and law enforcement.
A great indicator of what? That I'm more likely to stay at home watching movies and eating pizza than go out drinking and fighting? Or that I read Genesis 1:29? Or that I won't be calling in sick due to having a hangover on Monday morning? I guess it could be an indicator for a lot of things now that you bring it up.

Well, you Moderates have a lot to learn. You're lukewarm on everything
All forms of taxation are theft and therefore all public spending programs are criminal enterprises. I don't believe anyone has the right to force anyone to do anything as long as they aren't harming anyone else. What's lukewarm or moderate about that? I have to say, this is a first for me. I'm usually accused of being a radical extremist. Not sure which is worse
Dooble said:
No, you're aggravating because you vote inconsistently, or you don't even vote at all.
You keep saying I'm inconsistent without any basis. I'm very consistent. If anything I'm probably too consistent. I already said (twice) that government in its current form contradicts my ethical beliefs, so I would vote against it in its entirety (by not voting at all, and possibly engaging in acts of defense against aggression). I already said that if I was forced at gunpoint to pick one of the last US presidential candidates to be my ruler, it would have been Ron Paul. I have no idea where you got the idea I would have ever considered voting for Obama
or Romney, they are both socialists as far as I'm concerned.
Also, I'd like to point out that not voting is more consistent than voting for a different guy once every eight years
