About Bumber Stickers

I currently display the following bumper sticker on my primary vehicle:

I picked this up over at LibertyStickers.  I do agree with the tongue-in-cheek sentiment of this slogan but I realize that I must be careful so as to not be painted into the complete sentiment of LibertyStickers collection of offerings.

After all, the depth of political discourse these days rarely goes beyond superficial. Here is another of their current, and accurate offerings:

LibertyStickers pretty much toes the complete and exact line along the planks of the Libertarian Party.  Although the Libertarians are right on the mark when it comes to matters of moving the United States back toward a constitutional republic where the purpose of the constitution is to protect the people from the government, there are less fundamental aspects of the Libertarian plank with which I disagree.

Particularly, I disagree with the Libertarian view of, perhaps I should call it “non-support” of Israel.  Non-intervention is a great idea when intervention would be better described as imperialism or meddling.  However, the primary long-term threat to Western Civilization has its origin, and financial backing, in the Middle-East.  The current sovereign state of Israel may have been created with much international intrigue, but no modern state could claim to be completely free of such intigue in their own creation.  The reasonable moral measure for today is how they lead their lives as a nation and as a people.
