Am I reading this correctly? The 'Cash for Clunkers' debacle was a greater disaster than the war in Iraq?!?
I'd like to see the Libertarians they polled.
Of course, considering their own actions and candidate in the last election, I personally don't think they can call themselves Libertarians of any kind.
Where are you getting that Q? It says in no particular order, which I assume goes for both of the lists.
