We don't need principles comrade!

Statist.  Straight to the point.

Crypto-statist.  Statist who needs to come out the closet.

Crapitalist.  "Capitalist?  More like a crapitalist!"

Leftarian.  Left-libertarian.

Libertrendian.  Someone who jumps on libertarianism due to a trendy appeal, but with no real knowledge or agreement with libertarian theory.

Comrade, why do you use such harsh language?  Just because someone is for a little tax, a little welfare and a little monopoly, doesn't mean they are not libertarian!

liberty student, your use of "comrade" gave me an idea.  Next time someone starts spewing statist sentiment, just call them comrade!  It might go right over their head.

It has worked great for me many times.

Well maybe if you used some coercion we'd all get together and create some great ideas. MARKET PHAILURE

With trying to be civil, probably so.  We don't have the wit combination of Bastiat and Shakespeare to make a simple insult to statist that would leave them bewildered.
