Paul Destroys Paul

Ron Paul taunts Paul Krugman

Yesterday, the world was given a treat. Bloomberg TV pit the Nobel-prize winning establishment shill Paul Krugman against the intellectual heavyweight and presidential candidate Ron Paul. Half of the debate was painful to watch; I assume I don’t need to say which half. Highlights included: Paul Krugman being completely unable to understand that while he [...]

Ron Paul Inspires Thousands of Austinites

Ron Paul brings his message to the University of Texas

With the 2012 election around the corner, Ron Paul and his supporters won’t go down without a fight no matter how much the mainstream media attempts to black them out from the news. If you had been at the LBJ Lawn at 7PM you would have witnessed that his campaign has a youthful following. The [...]

Libertarian Longhorn member published in the Washington Post

A few weeks ago, the Washington Post’s highly-trafficked blog “On Faith” asked me to write an article about Christianity, libertarianism, and Ron Paul. The article was published today and is currently featured on the site in the “Guest Voices” section. Check it out! A quick excerpt: “Through libertarianism, many Christians have found a way to [...]

Every year, I like to construct a list of some of the best books released in the past year and a few a others that are worth recommending at any time. Of course, this is my opinion, but if you’re looking for a gift for your libertarian loved one this Christmas season then perhaps you’ll [...]

Rand Paul may have prevented conflict with Russia, but what does it mean?

I do not want to overstate the event, but there has been some very interesting stuff going on in the Senate these past few days. Jack Hunter reports in the Daily Caller that Rand Paul blocked an unanimous consent vote that could have had big effects: Last week, while most senators were focused on the [...]

Ron Paul’s Plan to Restore America

Monday afternoon marked the release of Ron Paul’s “Restore America Now” economic plan and federal budget, and it is impressive. Forget this “9-9-9” garbage put forward by campaigns that prefer catchy numerical alliterative nonsense to substance, Ron Paul’s plan is the only plan that immediately eliminates five cabinet departments and craters the military-industrial complex in [...]

The “Extensive Failure” of Full Body Scanners and the Politics Behind It

I posted this article at another website that I help manage, StopAustinScanners.org. I should note that LL member Taylor Metting and I both spoke at the AAAC meeting mentioned below as well. The recent meeting of the Austin Airport Advisory Commission to discuss the upcoming installation of “Advanced Imaging Technology” (AIT) at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport [...]

Texas House passes legislation banning Security-Theatre Patdowns

A few days I ago I posted on my main website, LibertarianChristians.com, about David Simpson, the heroic Texas representative who is taking a serious lead in fighting back against the TSA and more in the Texas House. As I said, I think he is the Ron Paul of the Texas legislature. I have been working [...]

Keep TSA Scanners Out of Austin

Here’s a special message from www.tsatyranny.com. Even if you don’t live in Texas, you can have an effect – you can tell the City Council that you are more likely to travel to or through Austin if they can be assured that their rights will not be violated by the TSA. Or, take the example [...]

The Libertarian Longhorns respond to the State of the Union Address

Here’s what we have to say… Nothing. We don’t care, we didn’t watch. After our weekly meeting — which coincided with the speech — we went to The Posse East as we always do for some food, fun, and discussion. The SOTU was all over the TVs, and as we arrived we declared loudly “Look, [...]
