On a recent Reason Magazine thread (reason.com/blog/show/119840.html), Andrew Levy (Andy) of FOX's Red Eye TV program and dailygut.com made an off-hand, ad hominem comment about my Libertarian Quiz. I posted a comment asking him whether he could provide an actual argument, to which he replied, "nope".
While it would be easy to consider him just a lightweight, I'll give him a second chance. He can leave comments here explaining his position, and I'll try to reply as time allows.

We already know what the extremes of libertarianism are. Reading this quiz (one doesn't "take" the quiz, one only needs to read it) was a good, right waste of time, though I admit that I wouldn't have read any of it if you merely said "List of terrible, extremist positions I ascribe to all libertarians." Could you imagine if all Republicans and all Democrats held the most extreme views their parties had to offer? It's just not a realistic thing to assume. Still, it was entertaining. I'm wondering why you didn't include Phil Alembic and Vinny Zorro in the answer to the last Q.
TLB, U R dumbbbbb.
Libertarians are jackasses. I love to hear them rant about giving 11 year olds guns (I'm not making that up). See their party plank on immigration. Patriots these fools are not.
Today over on http://www.forthecause.us/ there is a Lou Dobbs video clip where a US naturalized citizen who immigrated from Iran and worked in one of our nuclear plants for 17 years returned to Iran, logged into the nuclear plant computer and downloaded a bunch of classified information. And I thought you were joking when you put that question on your Libertarian test!

Your quiz sucks there is no simple solution for each of your questions, yet for each question you only have two responses. You cannot judge something based on a skewed 7 question quiz that only has the extremes of answers.
