Eastwood is more libertarian than Maher, by far. Plus, Eastwood’s speech was kind of sticking it to Romney
Kind of sticking it to Romney but still endorsing him is an endorsement. Calling it otherwise is nonsensical. Romney stands for everything that the libertarian mind-set opposes. You can’t endorse him for President and still be considered a libertarian.
That’s like Paul Ryan’s “violating my own principles to save my own principles” speech. It’s trying to blur the line. It’s a bait and switch.
Like I’ve said before, nothing wrong with Clint having some libertarian values but endorsing a NeoCon for president, to each his own and he’s free to support whoever he wants but don’t claim to be a libertarian and then support a platform that ideologically opposes nearly every libertarian principle.
Forget the Obama commercial, that’s a non-issue.
There’s a lot of reasons I can list but mainly because Clint Eastwood endorsed Mitt Romney and Mitt Romney is for big government, bailouts, NDAA, other violations of civil liberties & the Constitution and more wars.
I can’t consider you a real libertarian if you get up on national television and pledge your endorsement for a man of these values. Clint might have some “libertarian” values, but he isn’t a libertarian.
That’s okay. It’s okay to be a person who has some libertarian values. Hell, Obama has some libertarian values. But to call yourself and have people believe that you’re a full-on libertarian gives real libertarians a bad name.
