Today, most people are acting like they knew about Aleppo yesterday

There are multiple reasons to think Johnson makes for a crappy Libertarian candidate and Aleppo ain’t one of them.

I taught World History and Geography for fifteen years, so I knew where and what Aleppo is. That said, it was a poorly-worded question designed to trap Johnson. A better form would’ve been, “What do you think about the refugee disaster in Aleppo, Syria?” That’s the form I would’ve used for an essay question to my students.
Further evidence that minions of the CriminalLiberalNewsMedia are DemCong operatives with by-lines. They fear a Libertarian vote migration away from the Hildebeast.

Johnson’s press dude actually responded to my Reddit question about how Weld. (Libertarian AMA couple of weeks ago)
It was basically “Weld has always been a small gov, liberty loving individual and I’m an idiot for looking at his past or even raising the question”.
A pox on both of them. Fast handbasket for the win.
If I sound personally vitriolic on this, it’s because I am. My party of choice has been commandeered by a couple of fucking Republicans.

In your last post about GJ a (now regretful) registered Libertarian asked “What happened to the party?”
I said what I believe; L vs. l. They don’t call it the “shift” key for nothing.
Still, this one was a planned gotcha and that ain’t right.

@Ken in NH, yes, that’s very true. Many of his positions are leftist ones, not libertarian.

I agree, especially with how the media played it afterward ad nausem. They make much more over rote minutia than what overarching policy views a candidate has. For the reasons above, I think Johnson is a phony libertarian, but he has to be taken down since he may be robbing Rodham Clinton of some her rightful votes.
