To Tea or Not To Tea by Joel S. Hirschhorn (libertarian, February 9, 2010)A lot of political dissidents and rebels like me surely have some good reasons for not joining the national tea party movement.
CHARLIE DON'T SURF by Jim Quinn (libertarian, February 9, 2010)The current imperialistic ventures of the U.S. Empire are centered in the Middle East. The rationale for the current occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan, used to sell the American public, is the war on terror. We are making the Middle East safe for Democracy, just like Vietnam. The accurate nature of the conflict revolves around oil, the lifeblood of American suburban sprawl culture.

Aficionados of Ostentation by John Kozy (centrist liberal libertarian, February 7, 2010)Do those who buy the paintings of long dead artists and fund buildings for artistic performances do so because they truly love the arts or because they want to boast, "Look what I can afford to do!"? There was a time when wealth supported artists. That practice died out sometime after the sixteenth century. What goes on today borders on the absurd. While huge amounts of money are being spent, the artists themselves are being neglected. This is not love of art for art's sake; it's merely benefactor aggrandizement.
After a decade of ongoing Chemtrails and being in the midst of an ongoing “economic (non)crisis” this issue (among many others) should be a cause of outrage for the citizens of our nation--it is past time to demand an explanation--why is our government spending our tax dollars in this manner!?! It is past due for us to demand an explanation--or is our Government no longer accountable to the constituency that elects it to office!?!

JOBS OF THE FUTURE by Jim Quinn (libertarian, January 27, 2010)Despite the Federal Reserve’s extraordinary printing and the U.S. Government’s extraordinary spending measures during the last twelve months, it looks like the only job categories with growth potential are printing press operator, ditch diggers, ditch fillers, whatever they call the guys handing out trillions in government largesse, Treasury Department comedians tickling Chinese funny bones by saying they favor a strong U.S. dollar and people installing Stimulus signs at highway projects.
Comments emerging from a world forum of top economists and investors in Davos, Switzerland this week raise the question: do economists really not "get it", or are they engaging in more smoke-and-mirrors?
The marathon to spread the message of liberty and reclaim the Fighting 15th from the Establishment rages on. The Republocrats fiddle while our country burns.

A New Era of Responsibility? Or more out of control spending? How can we ever pay our way out of debt if we spend 61% more than we take in?
What must be done when the Supreme Court makes an awful ruling like the recent one permitting more corporate money in politics: recognize that our corrupt Congress will never propose a constitutional amendment to fix the problem nor pass legislation to do the job. Article V offers the solution.
In the interview with Diane Sawyer when President Obama says that he'd "rather be a really good one term President", another quote of his explains exactly why he should be.

Leftish Professors by John Kozy (centrist liberal libertarian, January 22, 2010)The notion that there is political lopsidedness in academia tilted to the left is an old canard propagated by anti-intellectual ideologists who do not now and never had a taste for truth. The only reason this canard keeps popping up is that journalism is a label that leans toward stupidity. It will go away when journalists quit reporting it.
Disdain Versus Democracy by Joel S. Hirschhorn (libertarian, January 22, 2010)Understanding the Scott Brown victory has caused President Obama to recognize his own failure, something that millions of Americans have already done.
