His site is set up so poorly, I cannot provide a direct link. Click "press room" on the main page to see the article. Also, Cho talks about BJ's website yet he can't even get the address right, lol.


Lawson Shows True LIBERTARIAN Colors, Attending Libertarian Rally today in Washington



“While I am working hard to represent Republican values in the Fourth District, my primary opponent is attending a rally today in Washington, DC with Libertarians, supporting the Libertarian Party’s platform” said Augustus Cho, candidate for U.S. Congress in the Fourth District.


According to the website, www.terraeclipse.com, B.J. Lawson, who is running for Congress as a Republican, will be in Washington DC today with his mentor, Ron Paul, Libertarian presidential candidate Bob Barr, and Shane Cory, Libertarian Party Executive Director. The rally is timed with the April 15 tax filing deadline. Lawson also attended the Wake County Libertarian Party’s convention in March.



“Every year on April 15, we are reminded that our tax burden is too high. Not only do we pay too much in taxes, but we also spend an unreasonable amount of time and money just figuring out how much we owe!” observed Cho. “I do not have an issue with Lawson attending a rally to highlight this problem, however, I think it is imperative that Republican voters in the Fourth District understand that Lawson’s allegiance is clearly to Libertarian principles, not Republican ideals,” continued Cho.



Information gleaned from the National Libertarian Party website and B.J. Lawson’s website and writings show many similarities. Both oppose the Federal Marriage Amendment, both support immediate troop withdrawal in Iraq, both oppose the Federal government’s laws against harmful, illegal drugs. “I support the Federal Marriage Amendment, I believe we should stay in Iraq until the Iraqi’s have a stable environment, and I believe that we should never legalize harmful drugs that can destroy our culture,” declared Augustus Cho.



“I also believe we should sanction employers who hire illegal immigrants. Lawson and the Libertarian Party do not. Additionally, I know that the Patriot Act and the Protect America Act are essential tools in preventing another terrorist attack on our soil, while Lawson and the Libertarian Party oppose these laws,” Cho pointed out.



“Finally, I believe that America’s involvement in world affairs has been a positive factor in international relations. If the United States was not engaged or involved, chaos would break out in many parts of the world. Our diplomats and our troops are a force for good and have been throughout history. In contrast, my opponent accuses the U.S. of maintaining a ‘global empire.’ The Libertarian Party calls American foreign policy ‘imperalist adventures’. I see little difference in this stance and that of radical left-wing groups,” Cho finished.



The Republican Primary is May 6. Early voting begins April 17.

All of maybe 6 people a month visit that site.

Don't worry about us, guys. This is par for the course. Cho has been throwing out the same tired attack time and again; in fact, it's pretty much composed his campaign's entire message. It's starting to turn lots of people inside the party off.

And that rally was NOT a Libertarian rally. It was an anti-tax rally that a lot of Libertarians attended. (Surprise, surprise! Libertarians don't like taxes.) As far as the Wake County LP convention is concerned, well, B.J. went BECAUSE HE WAS INVITED! What Cho is essentially saying in this is that he wouldn't go speak to an event of another party if he was invited; he'd essentially tell them to go fuck themselves. That's not how you build a coalition to reduce the size of government, which Cho claims he wants to do.
 
Foreign Policy



I support the United States involvement in world affairs for the benefit of national security and the peace and security of the world.



My opponent advocates a "non-interventionist" foreign policy.

ROFL.

America, "Imperialist?"



I believe American foreign policy, while not perfect, has done a great deal of good in the world, and that words like "empire" and "imperialist" should only be reserved to describe regimes who truly annex land and subjugate other peoples.



My opponent characterizes American foreign policy as maintaining a "global empire".



The Libertarian Party calls American foreign policy "imperialist adventures."
 
Please delete this post. This reeks of ugly collectivism, and it is a terrible statement. Cho right now is completely making up allegations of Lawson and campaign staffers being "racist," and we do not need to be giving him more ammunition for attacking us, even if the statement comes from someone we don't know in the slightest. Augustus Cho is running a campaign of the lowest standard possible in terms of honor, and we as a campaign and supporters do not need to stoop to that level.

Relax. I didn't mean it as anything but how silly his name is.

If you want it deleted, you shouldn't have quoted it. You'll have to edit your post.
 
I hope BJ can use this as free publicity. If I were running against someone I wouldn't want to tell everyone that he is meeting with presidential candidates while I'm sitting on a computer reading a Ron Paul message board... Cho. ;)

I'd rather be called principled than idealistic... :)
 
That's hillarious dude.

I think LAwson can really win this.

Isn't his Primery May 5th or something?
