However, most of the folks here who foolishly think they are libertarians, delight in rolling around in other peoples sexual matters, government investigations of sexual matters, support government-supported prayer in schools, and often are against anti-trust even though the purpose of antitrust is to create more competition and free enterprise. Mostly, they are MSFT suck-ups, power groupies, clinton-haters, and PR spin doctors. They have nothing at all to do with any pure spirit of libertarianism, or any other set of principles of behaviour.

Boy, dissecting this mish-mashed paragraph will take some doing. Those who "delight in rolling around in other peoples sexual matters, government investigations of sexual matters, support government-supported prayer in schools" are most certainly not libertarians, Capital L or small. Those who are "against anti-trust" most certainly are. Stating that "the purpose of antitrust is to create more competition and free enterprise" is Orwellian doublespeak of the first order. "Mostly, they are MSFT suck-ups, power groupies, clinton-haters, and PR spin doctors." My, what an eclectic mix. "They have nothing at all to do with any pure spirit of libertarianism". Before making such statements you should at least try to get a handle on what ideology and philosophy you're talking about.
