One thousand three hundred thirteen libertarian quotes on the wall.

http://www.lpboulder.com/quotes/

I don't know if I'll ever get through them all. I thought these were funny.

Democracy must be something more than two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner. – James Bovard (1994)

A liberal is someone who feels a great debt to his fellow man, which debt he proposes to pay off with your money. – G. Gordon Liddy

And finally, because it hits close to home [work, actually]:

The single most exciting thing you encounter in government is competence, because it's so rare. – Daniel Patrick Moynihan (1976)

I'm lucky to work in an office with some very bright people.

However, I do work with people from other government agencies/entities and am constantly baffled at how some of these folks maintain their posts [including some electeds].

I also hear lots of stories from private sector indicating that corporations, large and small, often employ highly-paid, highly-incompetent people.

NOTE: The libertarian quotes may either be quotes of a libertarian nature or just quotes by a libertarian. That wolves and sheep quote falls in the latter category.

I think that G. Gorden Liddy quote is a little passe considering the debt that the current "conservative" controlled White House and Congress have racked up.

Maybe the quote should be updated to "a bush-conservative is someone who feels a great debt to his business partners, which debt he has no fucking ideas on how to pay off."

Anyway, I like the blog, keep it up!

whoa. That would definitely be a libertarian quote.

I'm sure if you read all 1300+ quotes [I haven't] there are probably several that bash corporate welfare [of which I am no fan].

Thanks for the props!
