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.


Texas conservative base shifting towards Medina
by A Texan Does Politics (libertarian, February 9, 2010)

Governor Rick Perry did not receive the much needed endorsement of the Texas Republican Assembly today showing a shift toward Debra Medina among conservatives.

How to undermine a movement: turn its values on their heads

by Gary Wood (conservative libertarian, February 7, 2010)

Those listening carefully to Sarah Palin at the Tea Party Convention should have no doubt, political animals are attacking tea party activists in earnest.


Jake Towne - John Callahan Clueless on Job Recovery
by Jake Towne, the Champion of the Constitution (libertarian, February 7, 2010)

Even if they had good intentions, dinosaurs went extinct for a reason. So it will be with Republocrat career politicians.


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.


Chemtrails over the Ozarks--why ask “why”?--“Why” ask I!!!...
by Michael (libertarian, February 7, 2010)

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!?!


Three Reasons Gays Should Not Serve “Openly” in the Military

Obama and the Generals on DADT: pathetic cowards.
by Tully (libertarian, February 2, 2010)

Gays already serve in the military, and are forced to live a life of secrecy and half-truths to avoid recriminations. DADT should be ended with a simple penstroke by the Commander-in-Chief.

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.


World's Economists: Clueless or Lying?
by Walt Thiessen (libertarian, January 27, 2010)

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. In a two-party plutocracy angry voters can only shift power between the two corrupt major parties.
