Let’s Not Offend Hollywood’s Delicate Geniuses
by Cam CannonIn 2006, while accepting the Academy Award for playing a husky, grizzled version of himself, George Clooney famously gushed, “…this Academy, this group of people gave Hattie McDaniel an Oscar in 1939 when blacks were still sitting in the backs of theaters. I’m proud to be a part of this Academy. I’m proud to be part of this community. I’m proud to be out of touch.”
My apologies for bringing up old crap, but Clooney’s statement, especially the part about how he’s so proud to be out of touch, is one of the most bafflingly odd things I’ve ever heard coming from Clooney, who’s also famous for telling anyone who’ll listen that everybody tells him all the time how brave he was for making a black and white movie about the red scare. It’s very revealing that Clooney would say this, to cheers, a mere three years after a child-rapist was handed an award by that same Academy.
Cut to the present, the child-rapist is caught, and much of Hollywood is outraged. “He should be allowed to live his life,” wrote Peter Bart, his words practically streaked with tears. Hey, guess what, Pete? He has been allowed to live his life. They’re all like Clooney, proud be out of touch. But why? To answer this question, we turn to the genius of one George Costanza.
They’re different than the rest of us. They’re “delicate geniuses.”
Back to the Academy Awards, who can forget Sean Penn humorlessly, smugly, embarrassingly chiding Chris Rock for poking fun at fellow delicate genius Jude Law? Rock’s offense? A joke, dripping with truth, which pointed out that Jude Law is not a box office draw. The box office doesn’t matter to them. Hell, look at the movies they nominate nowadays. They’ve grown more out of touch than ever. You think “The Sting” would get nominated for Best Picture today? Much less win? Or “Jaws”?
And then there’s David Cross (of “Arrested Development” fame), who brags that he snorted coke near Obama. If you don’t think that’s super-cool, then you’re probably a stupid Christian. He’s one of those atheists for whom it’s not nearly enough to just not believe in God, he has to build a stand-up career out of his atheism. He’s always been strangely uninformed about Christianity, but that doesn’t stop him from cracking hipster jokes about Christians. Back in 1999, he joked that he couldn’t wait to make fun of Christians when Y2K turned out to be a global non-factor. In this hilarious segment, Cross discussed Y2K more than my Southern Baptist Pastor did in an entire year.
Cross’ cocaine story, coupled with the story last week about Academy Award fixture Hilary Swank–the she sashays around the house nude in front of her boyfriend’s six-year-old kid–illustrates what’s gone wrong with the delicate geniuses. Hilary, please, put us on a need-to-know basis. You were way cooler when you were the underdog, the “Next Karate Kid” made good. We simply know too much about the delicate geniuses. The delicate geniuses would be more respected and adored by their audiences if they embraced a little mystery. Remember when Sean Penn crazily demanded privacy? He was sooooo much cooler then. We all knew Paul Newman was a liberal, but I never got the impression that he thought that made him smarter than his audience.
But that’s exactly how the current stars sound when they take credit for the Civil Rights Movement, or wish shame on the grandchildren of people with different opinions than their own (that’s you, Mr. Penn), or indulge us with their stories about getting a snootful of Bolivian Marching Powder while in the company of The Savior, or traipsing around nekkid in the company of kids. They’re enlightened, you see, and we’re the uneducated masses.

George Clooney beat his dog to death with a baseball bat. Rattlesnakes do not strike and hold, no venomous snake does, they strike and retreat and wait for the poison to work. So we know from his confession here that he beat his dog to death with a baseball bat, but that his reason for doing so cannot be true.
The 'delicate genius' reminds me of a great Phil Hendrie show, where the premise is that celebrities have greater molecular mass than the rest of us, and so are entitled to more privileges. It was very funny
I see what you are saying (I can't get that South Park line out of my head!) but I think we're talking about two separate, but intertwined issues: smugness and weird habits. Clooney might be smug but I don't know if he has any odd habits. Swank might have an odd habit or two (the aforementioned nudity) but I don't get a smug vibe from her.
And no, they'd never nominate Jaws or The Sting (or Raiders of the Lost Ark) for best picture today. 'Tis a shame…
George Clooney, Sean Penn, Matt Damon, Alec Baldwin, Jeanine Garofalo, Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins et al…
That's why I love the movie TEAM AMERICA! Classic depiction of these delicate geniuses preaching to the world from Kim Jong-il's palace!
Although I am only the son-in-law of a genious, this gives me insight into a fasinating thinking process, perseverating, egotistical and frightening. It gives rise to the delicate noises honking from their orifices to one up the other morally superior flotsam floating on the puddle of success. Forgive them for this character flaw, remember forgive does not mean forget, also remember bad movies are much better when watched at home in a Kanye West tradition of killing brain cells and not driveing under the influence. This privileged domain is the delicate geniuses and illegal aliens.
Indeed, genius is often misunderstood…must be their thought process to take common sensically challenged stances on everything…to be sure we misunderstand them.
I just thought they had physically bigger heads than the rest of us…which may explain why they think they've got bigger brains than us as well.
I'm proud to be a "stupid" Christian.
"For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles." (Romans 1:21-23)

If an example of a delicate genius is Sting, then I'd prefer to be rough around the edges numb skull with just a bit of common sense:

Phil Hendrie is very funny! He was even in Team America (the voice of "Intelligence").
Oh! the Delicate Geniuses suffer so greatly because they feel SO MUCH more than us troglodytes!
Natalie, pardon me as I gorge myself on my bacon cheddar burger….
Sheryl, forgive me as I use more than one square….
Ed, absove me as I flush instead for composting….
But, ABOVE ALL, Lord Barack on high (PBUH), shrive me as I resist your plan to destroy the middle class!
This is the numbskull mindset that fills a vacuum left by an apathetic public. People that read lines written by other people, do not qualify them as experts on anything.
Phil Hendrie was pure comic genius. It sounds a bit twisted, but I actually enjoyed being stuck in rush-hour traffic, just to listen to him. When he quit for TV, I had to get a new job to avoid the rush-hour traffic.
Delicate geniuses? It goes deeper than that. I think Tom Stoppard's line says it best: "We're actors! We're the opposite of people."
Good use of (PBUH) with regards to BO. I wonder if anyone else got it.
I was thinking about Natalie when her latest little story came out. Or rather, I was wondering about Hollywood. Is there some committee or Ladies' Auxiliary or something out there that, when a performer becomes somewhat successful, sends a representative out to the performer's house with a catalog of standardized bizarre lifestyle choices and liberal social causes from which the performer is invited (or strongly encouraged) to choose? Sort of a welcoming fruit basket of wackiness? And if the performer says "Nah, that's ok – I like myself the way I am," does word quickly get around and the performer ceases to be invited to parties? I mean, does Hollywood attract weird people, or does it take normal people and make them weird?
As a stupid Catholic conservative who is hoping to double major, I guess I just cannot handle the intellect of college graduates like Sean Penn, George Clooney, and David Cross.
Wait, what's that? All 3 of them don't have college degrees? They sure are delicate geniuses then in that they cannot argue for s**t.
What is it about these people who have full access to wall-to-wall media coverage and who feel compelled to tell us every excrutiating detail about their personal pathologies? How much of a narcissist do you have to be to believe that people will revel in the fact that you snorted blow a few yards from the President? I suppose Hillary Swank is entitled to traipse about in the altogether all she wants in the privacy of her home but why tell us all about it? Could it be that they just need the rest of us to know how much they can get away with and about how much space they fill in the public consciousness? I wasn't a fan of Paul Newman's politics but he generally kept them to himself, was an outstandingly classy citizen and actually started a business that employs people and makes a product people want. Light years from our current crop of big-time celebrities.
As a *stupid* Catholic a few months from beginning grad school, I couldn't agree more. The clowns are ~winners~ of the genectic lottery or the progeny of Hollywood as in the case of the towering intellect that is Sean Penn. The man can act, granted – by het Sean, stay the hell out of foreign policy.
College degrees don't signify much more than proof that the individual has some self disicpline and determination. These Hollywood "puff balls" have neither.
I live in rural Australia and know about Woodrow Wilson and the Democrats' record on race during much of the twentieth century. Clooney might well be out of touch, just like he says. But proud of it?
Geniuses? Most of these people have finished high school and that's it. When left to their own devices and unscripted, their bimbo eruptions far outnumber any intelligent thought. They aren't that bright.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but, Shakespeare regarded his actors as little more than blue collar plumbers.
Hollywood's long run at sanitizing and stylizing these useless bimbos is just about over except with teenagers and the not too bright among us. Polanski is sitting in a Swiss prison because he made a dumb guy's decision to go there. It's not like that isn't being said about him in Hollywood's inner circle. How smart was that.
True to life! Who knew that Matt Stone and Trey Parker were oracle's.
A lot of these people, if they weren't actors. would be working in 7-11.
The COLLECTIVE IQ in Hollyweird would be high enough to boil water.
ANYTHING he endorses, is bad for America.

Or complaining about the horrible tips they get because they are a crappy waiter or waitress.

Stan, that statement is priceless. If this doesn't define Obama, nothing does.
"this Academy, this group of people gave Hattie McDaniel an Oscar in 1939 when blacks were still sitting in the backs of theaters. I’m proud to be a part of this Academy"
You mean the same Academy that didn't give a Best Actor award to any black dudes between Poitier and Washington? Meanwhile, in other industries, professional sports for instance, black people dominated. That academy? Oh, boy, what a legacy.
I'm tired of the likes of David Cross and Jeanie Garafolo (I know I spelled her name wrong and I don't care)… they think they are funny and witty but all they are a bunch of close-minded morons that tow the line in the name of non-confomity….
I draw a distinction between 'dumb' and 'stupid'. A dumb person doesn't know what the facts are or how a gizmo works. A stupid person CHOOSES not to know.
IQ, education, and experience are no bar to stupidity; in fact, these factors can accelerate the stupidity levels.
Witness Jimmuh Carter.
I love South Park! They are the great equalizers. They make fun of literally everyone.
They did say they didn't like conservatives, but hated liberals. They shocked a crowd of their peers once by saying they were Republicans.
"On my way to Morocco (where Syriana was filmed), leaving my house, there was a rattlesnake wrapped around my dog with its teeth in the back of his head. I had to get a baseball bat and beat the snake until it let go, but it killed the dog. That was the last thing the dog saw, me beating a snake with a bat.
I pity the dog, but, I'm on the floor laughing at what an idiot he is. How about rattlesnake "fangs" as opposed to "teeth". On a second reading, quite frankly, he's made it up.
So glad to see South Park get so much love. If truth were the bulleyes Trey and Matt have been splitting arrows time and time again.
"I’m proud to be part of this community. I’m proud to be out of touch.” And the genius here is…?
Delicate genius? Let's not confuse a skill that is inherently 'dishonest' (pretending to be something you are not) with being genius. Success means you are better than others at being inherently 'dishonest' which in almost any other profession would be a liability. Well sounds like a politician too.
What's is the saying about strange bedfellows? And the oldest profession? Wow. At least prostitutes don't pretend.
I hate being a rough and tumble genius. No respect.
It's amazing how relevant that movie is 5 years later…they even go after Michael Moore in it (which was too funny watching him with a hot dog in one hand and a slice of pizza in the other).
The scene with "Hans Brix" telling Kim Jong-il that if he didn't let him inspect the palace "we will write you a letter and tell you how very angry we are". Classic stuff!
They definitely are equal opportunity offenders! And the great thing is I never see them put themselves out there telling everyone else how to live!
I'm still scratching my head over the idea that putting on weight causes spinal damage.
Is he so weak that carrying an extra ten – fifteen pounds is enough to cause nerve damage?
They might do The Sting, after all, Redford's got the far left credentials.
That's because they are libertarians. There is a third option in the two party system. We just need to work on it.
if you wired them together they could *twinkle* a small lightbulb.
They're libertarians.
good point. stop confusing the Hollywooders with facts!
Remember the scene where the Panama Canal gets blown up, all those dead, floating puppets. Very surreal. They actually pulled that off as an extremely sad scene.
These guys are geniuses.
Remember in the Matrix, when Joe Pantoliano – talking to Agent Smith, said he wanted to be someone important, like an actor. I keep thinking that was a subtle jab at the pretentious class, known as actors.
To be fair, having to live with himself for his entire life, surely has caused him some brain damage.
I know it would to me if I had to spend that much time with him.
You may be right, but I've seen that they are registered Republicans. Or at least Matt Stone is. I see that Trey Parker is a libertarian.
Why would anyone want to waste a pizza by putting it on Obama?
Checking in as a stupid Catholic libertarian with two degrees.
But you must give actors credit where credit is due. They all know infinitely more about eating with make up on than I will ever know.
I live in rural America, and the democrats and the left have completely rewritten the history of the civil rights era, with themselves as the lead stars.
JFK was not shot by a red neck racists, Oswald was a card carrying communist who lived in Russia for a while.
Bull Conners of fire hose and attack dogs fame was a well established democratic politician.
George "Segregation for ever" Wallace was a democrat.
Though never officially registered as one, Martin Luther King Jr. leaned towards republicans for most of his life, only officially registered as a democrat in the last couple of years of his life because they changed to the official anti-war movement.
Al Gore Sr. broke the record for filibustering in the senate trying to destroy the 1964 Civil Rights act, which LBJ only got through congress with republican votes.
The list goes on and on and on. Typical liberals, take credit for other people's efforts.
He may be registered as a republican, but humor of this quality, this scathing, spread around attacking everyone and everything, I'd lay money if you got them drunk, they'd admit it.
Whatever the case, I'm glad they hate Barbra Streisand and liberals, in general. Good enough for me.
Finally, someone has the courage to revisit trivial events from three years ago!
I saw that piece of idiocy too, Ed, but the toothy rattlesnake was my first pick. Going by the dental evidence I think poor George clubbed his dog to death over a garter snake.
I can see why the Coen brothers have cast him.
Reminds me of a caller a few years ago to Rush's show.
Some brain dead liberal woman was raving that no black actress ever winning the Oscar for best actress was proof America was racist.
He let rant for a few minutes and then simply said "America has already voted for Hallie Berry by paying $7 to put their rear ends in the theater seats, which is why she gets paid $20 million a film. Americans do not vote for the academy awards, liberal Hollywood big wigs do, there's your racists."
As typical her head exploded, and she started screaming again, and Rush finally had to hang up on here.
Picture perfect example of exactly how you deal with these people. Key in on their central, flawed premise, cut it off at the knees, and sit back and watch the ensuing chaos.
Agreed. I find that many people who think they're liberals or conservatives. if they sit down and do the math they are closer to libertarianism.
To sum it up simple, I agree to leave you alone and let you live your life the way you want, and in return, you agree to leave me alone and let me live my life the way I want.
Works for me!
Agreed. Reminds me of a line I read over at Billy Beck's blog.
You can lead a dork to concepts but you can't make them think.
This line of thought is by no means restricted to actors and actresses. They're just the most visible because the cameras are trained on them.
This is classic modern liberalism at work. I've got a modern liberal friend who cleans bed pans for living screaming at me George Bush was a moron.
So I just tell him "Can you fly a jet?"
Haha
Brain damage is right. According to Gordon Sumner "the world's a mess." The world is actually more peaceful, despite the middle east, than it ever has been, and why? Individuals pursuing their own interests, through free trade, freedom to live lives as they see fit without authoritarian dictates. But Sumner says, we should evolve into one big family. Collectivism is the best way to devolve into bloody hell on Earth. And this worship of Obama, jeesh. I don't care who is elected president, no one is "sent from God" Sumner is 58, but my 16 year old has more wisdom than to believe the kumbahyah collective BS Sting is pushing.
Here here!
It's pretty obvious to the unwashed masses, because we can see right through their P-P-P-Poker faces.
It's impossible to be entertained by someone who trades in their celebrity for their politics and/or social inadequecies. John Cusack can only be viewed now as the poster boy for MoveOn.org. Sean Penn is the lackey for South American dictators. The list is endless of those who cast a blind eye to rape and pedophilia. Excuse me while I round up Sting CDs for the trash.
or ~snorting~ that high grade Peruvian flake with make up on, that must take *skill*.
No comment on the skills I may or may not have developed in my younger days.
That one bummed me out today when I read what Sting said..
Very true. we seen W.'s transcripts, where are our "Dear Leaders"? I bet they're a real hoot.
and Wilson REVERSED policy in D.C. by REINSTATING institutional racism in the U.S. government, nice huh?
you could enlighten the average modern American liberal sheeple, dumbed down by a leftist controlled education system that has eliminated and obscured American history into something unrecognizable by those over about 40 or so. Apparently NO WHITE MEN were involved in the founding of the U.S.A.
Here's the daily Islamic outrage of the day:
Muslims threaten New York restaurant for serving alcohol
Yet another stealth jihad attempt to compel non-Muslims to change their behavior to accommodate Muslim sensibilities. "Spotted Piglet Hiccups: Boozy Breslin Clashes With Mosque," by Meredith Bryan for the New York Observer, October 27 (thanks to Ed):
The much-hyped, soon-to-open Breslin restaurant, situated in the 12-story Ace Hotel on Broadway and 29th, is giving members of the Masjid Ar-Rahman mosque across the street some agita. "Five times a day, there's a hundred cabs on the street–the good news is you can always get a cab," co-owner Ken Friedman told the Transom the other evening. He said some mosque visitors "object to seeing people drink alcohol."
http://www.jihadwatch.org/2009/10/muslims-threate...
NEVER CAPITULATE TO THESE ANIMALS!
Why? Those comments were pretty run-of-the mill for ol' self-righteous Sting. His genius is very delicate. One could say almost fragile.
Fahrenheit or Celsius? I lean toward the latter…
I work with a liberal who told me, when asked why she didn't like George Bush, "He said stupid things". Of course, she couldn't name one of the stupid things. But one would guess that she knew what a stupid thing to say was, and she herself would certainly refrain from doing the same. Another excellent guess would be that she would absolutely avoid WRITING a stupid thing, especially in a research paper which she depended on for graduation
Imagine my lack of surprise when she offered to pay me handsomely for re-writing her paper recently, and I saw pages and pages of mis-spellings, run-on sentences, partial statements, lack of subject-verb agreement, and worse.
Why is it that the most ignorant and poorly educated among us are always so ready to tell the rest how inadequate they are? I guess he who knows nothing thinks he knows everything, while he who knows much knows how much there is yet to be learned.
If I owned a bar across from a mosque, I'd be such a pain in the butt if those guys EVER gave me any grief.
Every Friday evening, I'd have a HUGE happy hour. Cars parked everywhere. My most popular ladies' drink would be named.. the Mohammed Al Kaboom. Cinnamon schnapps, a little Bailey's and some grain alcohol, served en flambe. For the guys, I'd get a local microbrew to make something nice up and slap a label on it for me. I'd call it something like Infidel Ale.
Let them complain. Go back home, I'd say. In America, our founders brewed, drank and enjoyed beer.
Hilary Swank is a female? My bad.
Ok, that was cheap. I beg your forgiveness. In all seriousness, though, I find that most atheists who attack Christianity don't know what they're talking about. They have preconceived caricatures that they attempt to draw from the "everybody knows" pool of "knowledge," but little else. Of course, one may argue that many Christians don't know much about what they believe beyond "I have Christ in my heart." The same studies regarding how many people self-declare as "Christians" in the US, a large majority of that group doesn't see Christianity as the sole Truth (which cuts to the very heart of the claims regarding Christ's unique salvific economy – archaic definition – in Christianity).
This leaves the Faith open to ridicule with little to no critical check, given the fact that, in the West, nearly all beliefs have become salad bars (take what you want, leave the rest, depending on your own tastes). What Hollywood does, in general, is nothing more or less, methodologically speaking.
the sinner,
Patrick
Heh heh. I wonder if Clooney's business card has the same title and Wile E. Coyote's?
Quote: "My apologies for bringing up old crap, but Clooney’s statement, especially the part about how he’s so proud to be out of touch, is one of the most bafflingly odd things I’ve ever heard coming from Clooney, "
It's called establishing the premise and providing context for addressing the latest crop of bonehead moves from our moral and intellectual superiors in Hollywood. Looks like you're employing some Cooneyesque genius yourself, Fightin'.
The FREAKS, OUT OF TOUCH, WACKOS, SAME SEX CROWD, RAPE OF MINORS ADVOCATES, SOCIALIST, COMMUNISTS, all have an agenda. That is, to stick it in the face of NORMAL people enough, so that it seems to be everywhere, and so will in the logn run, be acceptable__to the everyday Joe, and the normal population. You start to hear comments by the average people today, such as, “Oh that Vidal, he's just this, or that, he doesn't mean any harm, if you just understand where he is comming from”. Well, the average Joe, and the average people in this country, need to “speak up”. Their actions, lifestyle, and behavior are not “NORMAL”. They are simply “SICK PEOPLE”, who need serious help. The State Mental Hospital comes to mind.
Isn't this the same academy that awarded only their second best actor award EVER to black actor to Denzel in 2002? That's a lot of years and a lot of best actor awards since Sidney Poitier won in 1963. I guess Poitier met their quota for that century. We'll see the next one in 2100.
Phil has gone back to doing his old show but it is on from 10pm-1am PST now. He brought the funny back!
I could care less what these souless, moral defficent drones have to say. I cannot comphrehend such crap coming from REAL STARS, like John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, Clark Gable ect ect. These were real Americans and proved it numerous times. That Hollywood is long gone, and the one that exists now supports and cohorts with people like Chavez and Castro etc. Hollywood is nothing more then scum and filth laden individuals who have no common sense or any type human morality of any kind.
What you say is true…Ask most people today, and they'd say that the Republican party was the party of Jim Crow, segregation, and the KKK. Most people have no idea that it is the Democrat party that was responsible for all these things and more.
KKK member David Duke was (rightfully) denounced by Democrats AND Republicans. Nobody remembers that Duke was a Democrat before he was a Republican.
KKK member Robert Byrd recruited for the Klan, praised the Klan for its work in the 1940's, and defended the Klan during his campaign for the U.S. Senate in the late 1950's. Byrd is the longest serving senator in U.S. history. Oh yeah, shhhh….he's a Democrat (and always has been).
This is a fantastic piece that details all the dirty little secrets from the history of the DNC that our kids will never know because they're too busy learning that conservatives are racists.

Not only does it employ folk, most of the profits are donated to charity. That is class. When was the last time you saw a salad dressing or bag of cookies with Clooney's mug on the front? Whats that, never? Some difference he makes. Hey George, your mouth is moving, better do something about that.
"It is better to keep silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt."
Is Clooney proud of the Hollywood that brought us the white supremacist film Birth of a Nation?
South Park will be remembered 50 years from now. It's my generation's greatest series, hands down.
Matt Damon
Where exactly was Clooney when this happened? I am not an expert but do they have rattlesnakes in Morocco? I thought they were North American.
Well he IS carrying a couple of pounds of dead weight on his shoulders.
"I'm Matt Damon!" that's the line that gave all of my friends, who were watching, hysterics!!!
I don't know about the other two, but I don't think Sean Penn ever graduated from high school. Of course I could be mistaken, and don't care enough to investigate.
"Would you like to super-size that, sir/ma'm?"
I would have loved to have heard that.
BTW, have you ever read Ann Coulter's take on Halle Berry's acceptance speech at the Oscars a few years ago? It's hilarious!
While you are correct in condemning David Duke, I felt bad for Louisianna as their other choice was the corrupt Dem. Edwin Edwards, who ended up in prison with his son.
W's grades and SAT's were better than BOTH Kerry, and Gore. But "Dear Readers" …………crickets!!!!
Bravo, and very well put!!
Hollywood was built by studio bosses who had more in common with Stalin than Thomas Jefferson. The bosses ensured that the movies were at least entertaining and the actors were cleaned up for the public. Since the demise of the studio boss, the darling cupcakes are lost. Actors pontificate, writers preach, and directors can't tell a story. That's why the little twits are working so hard to impose a Stalin on the rest of us.
You forgot W Goldberg.
But, Mr. Hand gave him that make up exam.
mmmmm gonna learn about Cuba and eat some food.
He was leaving for Morocco not in Morocco.
I think I did, I always read up on Coulter. She's my kind of debate person, throw out the truth, make it funny, and take the fight to the enemy.
I'm sorry, but listening to your pool girl play the Moraccas while you beat your dog to death for killing a garden snake is not the same thing as having an "attack rattler" on the premises.
It's amazing what good prescription drugs can do to one's perception of reality.
If old George wanted to lose 10 pounds of ugly fat he could just cut off his head.
I once used to think I was more in line with libertarians until I actually went to their site and found out exactly what they believe in. After that I think libertarians are the same as liberals. They are pro-gay marrage, pro-open boarders, pro-legalization of all drugs, pro-abortion. No thanks. I will remain a conservative Republican.
Actually libertarians aren't pro those things, those things are just the natural extension of their belief that every one should be free to do pretty much what ever they want.
Which means if some one wants to do certain drugs for recreational purposes, the state should not be allowed to prevent them. And by the same extension, if some one chooses not to do drugs, they should be free to not do them.
The key is the decision should be left up to the individual, not dictated by others using the state as an enforcer.
That's why they seem to be all over the place. And trust me, modern liberalism is one of their biggest enemies. Libertarians believe in supremacy of the individual over the state, while all liberals and a good portion of what passes for conservatism (Bush's 8 years of spending, demonstrate that perfectly) believe in the supremacy of the state over the individual.
