Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...


The former chairman of the Libertarian Party of Nevada shared his thoughts about the viability of the party and the kind of “knuckleheads” he’s had to put up with. He blogged just days ahead of the Libertarian Party of Nevada’s 2013 state convention:
Quote:

In the past, I've worked to support myself and a team of quality activists get elected and work to grow the party. But not this time, I’m done. I’ve decided to not seek any Officer position. Unable to build a large enough coalition of support to justify further efforts, I accept reality. I yield the field to the knuckleheads.

I am exhausted from the endless stupid drama that prevents our party from achieving critical mass. I have little hope that we shall see any quality activists lead the LPN this next cycle. We are infested with idiots.

Most people, even libertarians, are apathetic and kinda lazy. And too few people are really professional when they’re not being paid.

Even most of our “activists” are hardly active. Many just want to talk, and be entertained. Many thrive on drama. This little political organization is a great opportunity to….fill in the blank.

For some, it’s an opportunity to…

- play politics

- find a new social group of friends

- feel important because they have an important-sounding title (even though there is no money or power connected to the title, only responsibility that few welcome)

- make money off the LP

- use the candidates’ platform to promote their own pet issue or agenda

- use the candidates’ position to enjoy their 15 minutes of fame

- there are endless other examples

I’ve struggled to try and raise money and build an organization with very limited funds, and virtually no income stream. I’ve struggled with idiots who find it easier to destroy than create. I have more to do in my life than continue to struggle with such stupidity and foolishness. http://votesilvestri.com/8-i-need-a-break-folks

They shot themselves in the testicles the moment they "selected" Barr over the will of 96% of their members - showing their true colors as just another GOP front when the mask is ripped off and the truth of their monstrous evil is exposed - just like the "american taxpayers party" and the "tea party" and every other front and rock they hide the slimy, scummy truth of what they are under.

And me, I am of the opinion we should just stomp on those rocks and squish em for good.
