• American Nightmares: bin Laden 2.0 - May 11th, 2011
  

  A few years ago I spent the 3 hours necessary to watch a BBC documentary/mini-series  called “The Power of Nightmares”. I found it fascinating as it explored the symbiotic relationship between American neo-conservatives and terrorist groups like al-Qaeda. You can watch the entire series online at archive.org. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in [...]

• Ron Paul raises his pinky to the corner of his mouth and… - May 6th, 2011
  

  …in his best Dr. Evil impression says, “One Meeeellion Dollars!”. Yes, that is how much Ron Paul’s Debate Day Money Bomb has raised in a little over 24 hours. It’s like 2007-2008 all over again… but perhaps better. Check out the totals on the ticker at RonPaul2012.com.

  Ron Paul is on fire. That is my opinion of his performance in this first GOP debate. Of course, I’m biased. Feel free to make your own judgement after watching the entire debate below.

• Celebrating a loss, Bin Laden’s victory in death - May 4th, 2011
  

  Following Bin Laden’s death, the scenes of celebration in America were the equivalent of the losing team in the Super Bowl celebrating like they just won the game. As Radley Balko points out, Bin Laden has already won. And all the proof we need is recognizing that we are far less free and further in [...]

• OSAMA BIN LADEN IS Dead!! So what. - May 1st, 2011
  

  Glory to Allah! Well it appears that Osama Bin Laden is dead. He was supposedly killed about a week ago via a bomb/missile. The neo-conservatives will now be scrambling to find a new evil-doer to keep them aimed toward their goals. I’m sure they will tell us very soon who the new face of terror [...]

• Keeping up with the Pauls, Ron and Rand - April 27th, 2011
  

  Ron Paul officially announced the formation of his exploratory committee today so it was a big news day for the Pauls. Senator Rand Paul appeared on CNN and effectively painted Donald Trump as a liberal sympathizer evidenced by his historical donations to Democrats.

• Ron Paul 2012 Media Day: The View, Hannity, and Colbert - April 25th, 2011
  

  This morning on The View Ron Paul remained coy about whether or not he was running for president in 2012. The View’s studio audience seemed unsure how to act when listening to the cold hard truth emanating from Ron Paul’s liberty-loving lips. They clapped and Whoopie Goldberg seemed perturbed. Watch it below. Ron Paul’s nighttime [...]

  Ron Paul will appear on The View, Hannity, and The Colbert Report tomorrow under the guise of promoting his new excellent treatise on liberty called, “Liberty Defined: 50 Essential Issues That Affect Our Freedom“; however, will he also officially announce his run for president? If he wants to participate in the first debate scheduled for [...]

• Doc Lucky’s “The Immune” is libertarian fiction at its best - April 11th, 2011
  

  My libertarian soul was hooked immediately. Yours will be as well. From the very first pages of  The Immune, a libertarian-infused, science fiction thriller from Doc Lucky Meisenheimer you will crave something. Something that all authors wish their readers would crave–to see what is on the next page, and the one after, and the one [...]

• Ron Paul’s Brain on Foreign Policy - March 31st, 2011
  

  Ron Paul appeared on Canadian TV’s The Agenda with Steve Paikin to answer some very thoughtful questions regarding American foreign policy. Yet another excellent testament to Paul’s consistency and integrity when it comes to non-interventionism. He also discusses one of his favorite topics, the Federal Reserve.
