I care for kids, families, the sick and the elderly, working class, middle class, and every American. To end poverty and advance the American Dream, I am Libertarian Girl.
Say goodbye to the smoky cafe. France will ban smoking in public places such as cafes and restaurants as of January 2 (technically January 1, but they won’t enforce it that day), in a similar move to Illinois and other American states. As I previously pointed out and as the comments I received indicate, libertarians [...]
I live less than a mile from Elizabeth and John Edwards. All three of us are currently in Iowa campaigning for presidential candidates– they of course for Edwards, and I for a far superior candidate. While reading the latest issue of The Economist, I noticed Elizabeth Edwards trying to give out some pearls of wisdom [...]
The brats at Democratic Underground are concerned and worried about all the Ron Paul signs they’ve seen everywhere, so much so that they advise each other to take down any Ron Paul signs they come across: “just don’t get caught.” One poster does caution the other lemmings against stealing signs, not because it’s wrong or [...]
Driving across the country provides you with thinking time about issues that you normally wouldn’t dwell on. One of these involves rest areas. I noticed when I entered Iowa that a “Welcome Center” greeted me that was more of the nature of something you’d find at the site of a Southern plantation than something you’d [...]
John Zogby (the Zogby polling czar) writes about the Republicans’ chances in Iowa: Ron Paul: He’s going to do better than anyone expects. Look to Paul to climb into the double-digits in Iowa. Why? He’s different, he stands out. He’s against the war and he has the one in four Republicans who oppose the war [...]
Tomorrow I leave Illinois to go to Iowa for a week or so, so I’ll miss the magical day of January 1, when by law all public places in Illinois will begin to bar smoking. Many libertarians are against smoking bans, believing that the free market should decide whether to ban smoking (if people don’t [...]
“Deck The Halls for Doctor Ron Paul” To Be Sung to the Traditional Tune Deck The Halls for Doctor Ron Paul, fa-la-la-la-la, la la la la Patriots meet at the town mall, fa-la-la-la-la, la la la la Constitution’s best defender, fa-la-la, la-la-la, la la la Ron Paul is a nation-mender! fa-la-la-la-la, la la la la [...]
(I’m in Illinois for the holidays, so I thought I’d focus on the Land of Lincoln for a few blog entries starting today.) “Downstate Illinois,” as it’s referred to by Chicago reporters, is abuzz because FutureGen, the state-of-the-art coal-fired-yet-environmentally-friendly power plant has found its home: Mattoon, Illinois beat out nearby Tuscola, Ilinois and two locations [...]
In a move that will be sure to inflame many libertarian-minded freedom lovers everywhere, or which could be seen as further proof that our guy may just pull out the Republican nomination, a Libertarian Party candidate has filed to run against my man Ron Paul in his home congressional district in Texas. The head of [...]
Hillary Clinton is crying foul over her recent spate of bad media coverage, saying that the media is biased against her and therefore must want Barack Obama to win. At least one hack agrees. “‘She’s just held to a different standard in every respect,’ says Mark Halperin, Time‘s editor at large. ‘The press rooted for [...]
