Root is not afraid of taking hard questions. He is wrong on the war but no wimp.A Be polite and to the point.A I will start taking questions at a quarter till.A See Steve C.’s post for the link.A I’m at work and no damn time to screw around.A
Update: This interview illuminates the differences between modal libertarians*and Rothbardian Anarchism without ever mentioning a word about theory.A And, yes, Wayne, we are that far apart.A Peace.
Go listen to the Kubby/Smith debate from last week while Horton fixes the magic plastic box.
*De Coster is not fair to Kubby but her description in the first paragraph is true of many ‘libertarian reformers.’
Wayno Root: “I’m scared of terrorists! I’m scared of terrorists! Ron Paul baby doctor. Baby doctor can’t protect me from terrorists. Childern need protection from terrorists! I’m scared!”
I can’t listen to any of this nonsense.
Oh, forgot to mention that idiot thinks the US soldiers are dying for the Iraqis! Says Bush should give the Iraqis an ultimatum that the US will leave. Hey Wayno, that’s what the Iraqis want, you idiot. Plus this dolt wants to “give” (i.e. steal your money) “foreign aid” to other governments.
No Bob…… He doesn’t want to give our money to other countries – just ISRAEL, and that’s the 51 State don’t ya know.
I think I’d prefer your Gypsy moths to Wayno. Damn, if I want to listen to idiots spout nonsense about how they should steal my money and give it to Israel or any other foreign governments or about how we should all be scared, very scared because of this load of shit war on terrorism I’ll listen to f’ing Faux Noise.
FYI, Root is paison w/ the FAUX boys and has been on Murdoch’s station many times…..Maybe you could double your pleasure and tune in to FOX w/ Root on the screen.
I don’t believe in monetary foreign aid – period…..though I could use the presidency as a bully pulpit to ask American to (voluntarily) donate to worthy causes/reputable charities…..If we have warehouses of surplus food I don’t see a problem w/ donating that (especially perishables).
If I understand him right, he wouldn’t give foreign aid to those countries that vote our way at the UN……So essentially, if we can’t bribe them, only then should we cut them off.
>Maybe you could double your pleasure and tune in to FOX w/ Root on the screen.
Hah! Never! I’d rather be eaten alive by your gypsy moths. After 10 minutes I reached my Wayno Rot limit.

Above should read that DON’T vote our way at the UN……
“Hey, if you don’t vote the way weeze tell ya, then we cuts back on on da greenbacks, hows about that?”
Can someone please give me a quick crash course in who (or what) Wayne Allyn Root is? Why is he the subject of so much ridicule? I looked at his website and could only discern a shit-eating grin.
He’s a huckster and sports handicapper (dial 1900WAR4U2WIN) and get my lock on the winner of tonights Yankees – Red Sox game…….80% winners on all best bets….only $20 per call…..
He’s dapper…..and apparently has excellent hygene…… looks a little like an in – shape Dick Morris….

Maybe if he were suspended inverted for month and funnel fed a case of lukewarm unflavored Ramen Pride Noodles every day they might pass for identical twins.
In addition to a shit eating grin he’s got a huge ego. He’s quite full of himself so he’s got to be a prototypical politician.
W.A.R. is about as bad as Boortz – but then I suspected that before I knew anything about him after crypto-nazi Eric Dondero started talking him up.
I’m hoping Kubby’s endorsement of Ron Paul will help him secure the LP nomination and W.A.R. will be a footnote in LP history.
I can handle most of the 57 varieties of libertarians, but certainly not the liberventionist and millionaire republican varieties.
I have a rule to distrust anyone with a shit-eating grin who goes by three names, the middle of which is “Allen” or some cutesy variation thereof. Thanks for the primer, guys.
Wayne Allyn Root — or W.A.R., as he likes to go by — is a classic libertine conservative.
…Yeah, all for me and fuck you is his credo.
