That's a great cartoon. I've seen it before. I'm always amused by people
calling themselves Libertarians, as if that actually means something.
This clown takes me to task for not knowing about Libertarianism even
though I have a political science degree. Well, I do know about it. What
he doesn't understand is that Libertarianism is such a splinter group
and so meaningless that no one teaches anything about it. I can't even
think of any Libertarians who have even reached elected office. Even Ron
Paul, who is as close to a Libertarian as you can get is a registered
republican.

Libertarians don't understand how small and unimportant they really are.
The idea that there are divisions between Libertarians is a joke really.
That group of people are really out there. It's like the Wiki article
says, outside of the U.S. most places think of Libertarians as
Anarchists. In other words they think they're nuts. I'm sorry to break
the news but if you say you are a Libertarian it's like saying you're
strange. Normal people just don't go around saying they are Libertarian.
Even in political science those people are considered nutty. No one pays
them any attention, which is what I think ****es them off more than the
fact everyone thinks their ideas are stupid too.

As a further demonstration of his cluelesness about libertarians,
Hawwk-ptooey shows us that he still hasn't figured out that all
libertarians aren't Libertarians, which denotes membership in a
libertarian right oriented party.
