Gary Johnson will be on Hannity tonight, 5/7/2010

[TortoiseDream]

He didn't really get to explain at the end, sux.

I think Hannity was right about something, which was that Johnson will be the leading voice when Paul decides that he's done with politics. I trust him more than Rand, sorry. I know Johnson is much closer to what Paul believes than Rand, unless Rand is playing serious politics, which he would have to continue to do so even when he is elected, really.

We just have to give Rand a chance, he has a good shot at winning and he's a young guy. He'll probably give us enough of a record to evaluate him within the next few years; plus Johnson doesn't seem as motivated by politics.

where is the tube?!

 

[low preference guy]

We should get Rand to the Senate. If we don't, the liberty movement will be really hurt. If he wins, it'll motivate us to elect Schiff, Kokesh, Towne, and others. Give the guy a chance to show you his voting record before you judge him

How the fuck can this Hannity tool even claim to be for smaller government when he's not for legalizing a plant?

I mean the whole argument is not even about whether it's good or bad for you but whether you have the right to put whatever the fuck you want to into your own body.

How can he whine about the nanny state health care bill but also say we can't make our own choices about what we smoke?

The cognitive dissonance must be unbearable. Biggest fucking hypocrite on the face of the earth.

 

[AbolishTheGovt]

where is the tube?!

Seconded.
I would like to see the Youtube of the full episode. Anyone have it?

 

[jbuttell]

is this it? Just did a search on youtube... first one that popped up.

YouTube - Country's Most Controversial Republican?

 

[Odin]

^^yeah but I don't think that is the whole interview.

 

[EN81]

Gary Johnson seems a bit lackluster, and tends to go a bit "meh..." when he gets a question. He's very dull to listen to, and not exactly inspiring. He could have proclaimed himself a proud Goldwater conservative and talked about individual liberty, but no. That being said, I hope he improves and becomes President, as he's far better than the other likely candidates.

 

[olehounddog]

What made you decide to be honest? I couldn't believe that ?. To ask a man why he is honest....Its just sad.

Behold! Both parts:

YouTube - Gary Johnson The New Ron Paul! pt.1

YouTube - Gary Johnson The New Ron Paul! pt.2

 

[MozoVote]

Such a typical "newstertainment" style interview. Trying to box the guest into saying something embarassing. Bleah. Hannity and FOX still suck.

(By the way, nice touch at the end ... "MOX News")

There have been several tests that describe how marijuana is much safer than alcohol - especially when it comes to criminality.
I don't know if there has ever been a survey, but I'd dare say 75% of the people sitting in jails and prisons were drunk when they committed whatever crime put them there.
I don't do either anymore but I know the difference.

"I think the Iraqies need to pay us back for their liberation (IE slaughter of a million civilians.)"

His idea was that they would "Pay us in oil", how original, didn't they say the war would be paid for in oil when we first went in?

 

[itshappening]

yeah but the payback thing allows Hannity an "out" to not be as supportive. I think we should indulge that and like Johnson says "that's what was meant to happen but it hasn't ", it allows cheerleaders to see the error of their ways in a humble manner even though the logic is ridiculous.

We are going to make you pay us for murdering you.

So far, I'm not too impressed with Johnson's media appearances. He needs to start talking a little more about things other than pot. If he hasn't noticed, the country is on fire right now, and pot is not a real concern for most people.

I know it is a typical media tactic to talk about pot whenever a libertarian is on, but Johnson seems to have no problem with it, or even embraces the topic at the expense of more substantive issues like the Fed.

Pot is a big issue when you have millions of individuals rotting in cages for harming no one.

The War on Drugs is modern day slavery. It's the most important issue of our time.
