Gary Johnson is not happy that some in the media call Republican vice presidential candidate and Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan a libertarian.
“He voted for the Patriot Act, he voted for the National Defense Appropriation Act, he voted to ban online poker, he’s proposing a budget that gets balanced in thirty years. He is anything but a libertarian, anything but,” said Johnson after a packed campaign dinner at Hill’s Café.
Johnson, the Libertarian Party nominee for president, noted that Ryan was a strict social conservative that voted to restrict abortion rights and against marriage equality.
“Paul Ryan submitted personhood legislation that is anything but libertarian,” he said. Johnson's eyes widened and his volume increased as he went into detail about Ryan’s support for a national version of Virginia’s controversial transvaginal ultrasound law.
Johnson suggested that all the talk of Ryan as a libertarian and follower of Ayn Rand may help him because people will see pretty quickly that former New Mexico governor is the only real libertarian running.
Remember, there will be only one candidate on the ballot in all 50 states in November that doesn't have a government mandated health care system to his name.
If you are fed up with the status quo bullshit from the Republiocrats with their Coke vs Pepsi arguments, Gary Johnson is the alternative choice you've been looking for.
He will be the only fiscally responsible, socially tolerant candidate on the ballot in all 50 states this November with a proven track record as a two-term Governor to back it up. He is the only candidate who promises to slash Leviathan's spending by 43%, submit a balanced budget to Congress in his first term as POTUS and bring our troops home immediately.
Be libertarian with Gary Johnson this November and see what hope and change really looks like.
