  • Romney explaining free market philosophy

    Updated: 2012-02-10 18:06:43
    Romney is giving a good speech at CPAC. Romney is moving beyond cliches -- he's explaining the philosophy of free enterprise and why government interventionism doesn't work and has brought us to the brink of collapse. Politicians become perverted by Washington DC -- hey can't see outside government solutions to all problems. Romney says we need someone who really believes in limits on government power and a free market. Yes! I think Ron Paul is influencing Romney's thinking. Romney is definitely not trashing libertarian ideas like Santorum does.

  • Obama's contraception compromise

    Updated: 2012-02-10 17:25:09
    The issue is that the Catholic Church is forced by government o offer contraception to women. It doesn't matter who's paying for the contraception. Obama says he will have the insurance company pay for the contraception services which will be offered by the Catholic Church through company insurance offerings because they are forced by government o offer contraception services with the insurance offerings. This doesn't solve the problem, and it only confirms that Obama is not backing down. Sebelius, Jarrett, Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton and others on the Left, especially women, re pushing this, and Obama is right there with them. They're staking a political stand for the 2012 elections in an attempt to frame religion and the Right as against women's rights.

  • What if the Church is appeased?

    Updated: 2012-02-10 13:27:47
    If Obama and company come up with a "deal" that the Church can live with, will the Church put its head back in the sand, or will it continue to fight for freedom? Obamacare will violate freedom in many different ways, not just in he narrow ense of religious freedom promoted by some, so, will the Church stand tall for freedom in general? If the ssue is government over-stepping its bounds and telling private organizations what hey can and can't do regarding behaviors that don't violate rights, then the Church and all social conservatives and Catholic Democrats ho are now resisting the government intervention regarding Catholic organizations hould fight against all such government interventions which violate our freedom.

  • Could a Santorum Nomination Bring About a Libertarian Renaissance in the GOP?

    Updated: 2012-02-09 20:05:24
    A Daily Caller headline caught my eye yesterday from the Cato Institute’s John Samples: Is there a libertarian case for Rick Santorum? If Samples aim was to write an outlandish headline to bring attention to his article, it certainly did the trick*. In the article, Samples does not make the case that Rick Santorum is [...]

  • Observations from the Colorado Republican Caucus

    Updated: 2012-02-08 20:41:19
    Just one day before the deadline late last year, I changed my party registration from Libertarian to Republican so I could participate in the caucus that took place yesterday evening (Colorado’s caucuses are closed to independent and third party voters). Being new to the caucus process, I didn’t know what to expect. Now that I’m [...]

  • SCOTUS: Police Placing GPS Tracking Device on a Vehicle Without Warrant Violates the Fourth Amendment [or Does it?]

    Updated: 2012-01-23 19:45:05
    How about some good news on the civil liberties front to kick off the week for a change? Robert Barnes writing for The Washington Post reports that SCOTUS ruled 9-0 in United States v. Jones stating that the police placing a GPS tracking device on a person’s vehicle and tracking said vehicle over days, weeks, [...]

  • An explanation for… Almost everything really…

    Updated: 2012-01-22 09:00:54
    “Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don’t mean to do harm-but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.” – T.S. [...]

  • We don’t go black… We try to turn on lights

    Updated: 2012-01-18 23:13:06
    We’re not going black today, over SOPA or PIPA. In case you by some miracle hadn’t noticed it yet, tens of thousands of web sites around the country and around the world, are “going black” or putting up banners explaining that they are not available or there is no content today etc… In protest against [...]

  • Romney Would Have Signed the NDAA; Trusts that President Obama “Would not abuse this Power”

    Updated: 2012-01-17 20:28:50
    In last night’s debate, Gov. Mitt Romney said something quite incredible when asked if he would have signed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA): Yes I would have [signed the NDAA] and I do believe it’s appropriate to have the capacity to detain people who are threats to this country who are members of Al [...]

  • Quote of the Day: MLK Day 2012 Edition

    Updated: 2012-01-17 03:29:56
    Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech is unquestionably one of the most infamous famous speeches in American history. In listening to the speech today, I found the following passages that aren’t as often quoted to be some of the most powerful lines in the speech. In a sense we have come to [...]

  • Not An Easter Message

    Updated: 2012-01-16 01:08:57
    Imagine that you had an Orthodox rabbi in Jerusalem, who called for massacres of Palestinian civilians. He was arrested by the Palestinians, and they let him go with the caveat that he stop calling for the massacres. He’s soon back at his same old spiel, praising Jews who kill Arabs and other such nonsense. Soon, [...]

  • Bergen County Blue Laws and Charles Chesnutt

    Updated: 2012-01-16 01:08:56
    If you think you’ve ever been to a busy mall, shopping area, or highway, you’re wrong unless you’ve seen what awaits shoppers in Paramus, New Jersey along Route 17. I used to live nearby, and I hated having to buy anything because it meant dealing with the crowds and traffic on Route 17, which I [...]

  • Should I Allow Kidney Sales On My Blog?

    Updated: 2012-01-16 01:08:53
    I noticed when responding to a few comments last night on my post on responses from readers on libertarianism and animal rights that my post from last July about how selling one’s kidney can save lives (and should be legal) had attracted comments from blog readers actually leaving their email addresses in hopes of selling [...]
