Did you know that there is a third option on the ballot in the 48th Congressional District this year? That’s right, if you are tired of being served by lame Congressman John Campbell, and leery of voting for Agranista Beth Krom, you can vote for a candidate who actually values freedom, Mike Binkley.
Binkley is an author who lives in Laguna Woods.
Here is Binkley’s candidate’s statement:
Why vote Libertarian?
First, Democratic politicians have covertly joined Republicans in their Neocon agenda. Like professional wrestlers, these politicians use Kabuki-like gestures of conflict to mask their unity in pursuing the Neocon agenda: an endless war abroad, an assault on the Constitution and building an entitlement time-bomb.
The 2006 and 2010 Quadrennial Defense Review, the nation’s long-term military blueprint, documents their plans for their 80-year war in the Middle East. Since the 2008 election, they’ve escalated their wars in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Yemen.
The Obama Administration has seamlessly continued the Bush Administration’s attack on our Constitutional rights. Democratic Neocons have eviscerated habeas corpus, the right to be free of the government secretly imprisoning you, indefinitely. Democratic Neocons have continued rendition, the policy of delivering (sometimes innocent) victims to third countries for torture. Earlier this year, Democratic Neocons in Congress quietly reauthorized the PATRIOT Act.
The combined unfunded liability of Social Security and Medicare has reached nearly $107 trillion. (Source: The 2009 Social Security and Medicare Trustees Report) Their new entitlement has only made their time-bomb bigger.
Libertarians stand alone against the Neocons’ war abroad and at home and against unsustainable fiscal irresponsibility.
Second, you can make a difference. Our major parties have corrupted the elections so that 95% of the incumbents win. Electing a Libertarian to Congress would be big news. It would create a political earthquake. It would force the Neocons to explain their reckless policy. It would force an end to their reckless policy.

I encourage all Republicans to vote for Winkley for Congress and Debbie Tharp for Assembly if they value personal freedom. We cannot afford these people who want to take away our liberties, our privacy, and continue the incredibly expensive prison industrial complex.
ALSO, Mayor, the very insulting fact that Campbell and Warner refuse to debate their views with their opponents in public. It shows a disdain for democracy and their constituents.
Fox, Tharp, Krom, Binkley – they’re not afraid to stand up in the light of day and let voters know who they are!
Mike Binkley is one of the most honorable, decent people I know. If you would like to vote for an uncorruptable representative, who truly loves his nation and wants to steer us from the brink disaster, he is it. He is well qualified, well spoken, well educated in the ways of liberty and frankly one of the best people I know. Mayor Quimby, I find myself in total agreement with you concerning Mr. Binkley.
Great candidate statement Mike and good visibility on the continuance of the freedom constricting Patriot Act, wow had no idea it was reauthorized…thanks a bunch Campbell (grrr).
Thanks a bunch ALL Republicans (except for Ron Paul of course) and WAY TOO MANY bad Democrats.
