Is it just me or is the only non-economic issue Libertarians seem to care about are guns?

As for the question at hand, It isn't too hard to find my answer on this. From this foreigners point of view Bush has been a total disaster.

Libertarians care about other issues, unless they're some of the LINOs on this forum.

I care about other issues, but I don't support social 'liberalism' because it represents an extreme side of an issue.

I support freedom of speech-but there's a time, place and manner.  People are also responsible for everything they say-so to a degree it's a good thing to be self-censoring.
I support flag burning, but I don't support pollution
I support homosexuals' right to marry, but I don't think it should be a 'state-endorsed marraige' (I think the same of straight marraige).
I support people's right to stem-cell research, but I don't think that it should be federally funded nor should it be a top priority.

Guns are a hot button issue to David S and many other libertarians and I can see why.  There're only a hot-button issue for me if I feel that people are infringing upon that right.  It's been some time before any major anti-gun legislation was passed, so my interests are focused elsewhere.

I will not voluntarily give up one inch of the second amendment.

Do you feel this way about all of the Bill of Rights? If not, why not?

Yes.

Of course.

Not a lot of substance has changed, just public opinion polls.

What in particular?  Not hounding you; just curious.

Well, the only thing I've had a problem with in the past year is Rumsfeld's ouster after the election.  I'm fine with everything else, but I can name off stuff if you still want.

One of the best catchphrases to use when running for office as a fascist.  "I support freedom of speech, but..."

No

Iraq war was badly executed and planned and because of that we are currently losing a struggle that we, really, cannot and should not lose. He has overseen the biggest increase in federal spending since the Johnson administration, has proceed over a large budget deficit, cowtowed to the whims and interests of the religious right and has shown himself to be, overall, a rather incapable leader.

While certainly not the "worst president ever" that many try to exagerate him out to be, I think you would basically have to turn America into Somalia to be worse than Buchanan and basically steal money from the Treasury African dictator style to be more crooked than Harding, but he has been a disappointment and a incompetent leader in both domestic and foreign affairs of late.
