He caught hell of that, but he was right.

Actually, he didn't say that.
The guy in charge of his campaign said it in a dumb moment. Exactly the kind of thing that he and the rest of the political team try to keep their candidate from ever saying.

I kinda think it's weird that I have to be a Libertarian. I feel like I'm just looking at things with some common sense.
Nobody gave a fuck that JFK was 1000 times richer than Romney is. Or that the Kennedy family wealth was based off of bootlegging during Prohibition. Or that Kennedy was fucking dozens of girls behind his wife's back. Or that they had a bazillion dollars in Swiss bank accounts and businesses around the world (outsourcing lol) Who cares???
What was important was his ideas for the country.
That is what we should be looking at.
Do you think Obama has the right idea and vision for the country or do you think Romney does?
That should be the ONLY question.
But that doesn't draw ratings for CNN, FOX, MSNBC, etc.
So the campaigns go into stupid mode to get coverage and win over voters who are dumbed down by reality t.v.
I don't think it's really being Libertarian to expect our elections to be a step above an episode of "Jersey Shore"
Look at what is going on in the country and the world.
And we're all served up a bunch of misdirection that has NOTHING to do with the direction of the country and fixing the economy.
