I am no longer a registered Republican.  I am now a Libertarian.  Yes, I finally have had enough of the Republican Jeebus please-us spend-a-thon.

I can't say I left the Republican party, I can however say the Republican party has left me behind.  I'm not concerned about monitoring grown adult's bedrooms for deviant behavior and I have long since realized that Mohammad-fearing fundamentalists are not the greatest threat to this country.

Government is the biggest threat to our republic.  George Bush likes big government.  Therefore I can no longer support him or his party.  The war in Iraq has little to do with my change in parties.  In fact my conversion is mostly due to the growth of government and the resulting deficits that Big Dubbya is going to leave my generation (Gee thanks a lot).  At least we can now get to Ketchikan.  Ah yes Ketchikan, I knew a kid from Ketchikan that almost got kicked out of school for heroine abuse but I digress.

I dream of a day when we have a two party system of Libertarians and perhaps Republicans.  By then the childish idea of Socialism as championed by the Democrats will just be another sad chapter in the history of this country much like slavery and the criminalization of recreational drugs.

Viva La Revolution!
