I don’t look at voting as a patriotic duty, or as having any intrinsic importance (there isn’t a worthless Fed note’s difference between the major parties). Rather, I look at it as a form of self-expression; whenever possible, you try to give a finger to the incumbent crooks.… Read more ...

Libertarian Party Monday Message:
Dear Friend of Liberty,
The Federal Election Commission is harassing and maybe even threatening to silence the Campaign for Liberty.
This is an attack on free speech and an attack on another organization working to promote freedom.
