Get the Lolbert mug.A dilettante who is interested in libertarianism, but would more often than not break with the philosophy, politics, and economics of libertarianism for supposed compassionate reasoning ; that comes from an opposing camp. They're a believer in the political doctrine that is libertarianism which emphasizes individual liberty and a lack of governmental regulation, intervention, and oversight both in matters of the economy and in personal behavior where no one’s rights are being violated or threatened. Yet they are quick to cede their beliefs to appease opposing camps or to maintain supposed good optics.
This compassionate quasi-libertarian is oft associated with girouettism The practice of frequently altering one's views and opinions to follow current trends, bandwagonism The tendency to jump on the bandwagon, i.e. to join a craze or trend, sometimes for profit, or with someone who is dangerously softhearted or affrighted to argue into the weeds about into the trade offs, consequentialism, rule utilitarianism, etc.

The compassionate quasi-libertarian was scared to mention the third variable effect where this "Z" that wasn't mentioned in the study the debaters were discussing was more likely to influence "A" rather than "B" that was mentioned in the study, but the compassionate qusai-libertarian was scarred that he'd be accused of not wanting to help "A"; albeit, in his heart he believes that intervening with "B" wouldn't help "A" and if only the got around to intervening with "Z" instead of "B" than everything would be swell.

Get the Liberty mug.A event organized by ultra-Conservatives claiming to speak for all Christians. This event is closley allinged with the GOP, anit-gay extreamists, and one convicted Felon.
Like many other ultra-conservative events this confrence bogusly claims that Christianity is under attack by Radical Homosexuals. The sole purpose of these events is to promote homophobia in a attempt to presurve the GOP majority. The same radical righ-wing groups behind these events are the same ones behind the War on Christmas hoax.

Get the Liberty Sunday mug.A smart ass on the internet that claims the economy can work itself out on its own, as long as there is no government regulation.
