THREAT OF LIBERTARIANISM

In response to John Michael Flint's Sept. 19 community column ("America 
should tune out Falwell and his dark agenda"): Thank God our country was 
founded on the Ten Commandments and not the Libertarian option, which 
states, "Let peaceful, honest people decide for themselves what to eat, 
drink, read or smoke and how to dress, medicate themselves or make love 
without fear of criminal penalties." That puts the stamp of approval on 
everything from drugs to homosexuality. Thank God most Americans are either 
Democrat or Republican.
