Jeff Tucker Comes Out of His Shell

One of the underappreciated forces in the Austro-libertarian movement is Jeff Tucker, academic vice-president of the Mises Institute and editor of Mises.org. (He also taught me that real men wear bowties. I’m not there yet. I can wear a pink shirt no problem, I can sing George Michael at the karaoke bar without batting an […]

Gold Hits Record High

More proof that Ron Paul is the secret mastermind behind world economic affairs…

Fox News Guy Makes Great Comment

The whole clip is decent, but make sure you watch to see the guy on Fox discussing the fate of Afghanistan now that some nasty imperialist countries might try to take it over. (Zoinks!) The Daily Show With Jon Stewart Mon – Thurs 11p / 10c

Glenn Greenwald vs. Eliot Spitzer

Arguing about the Israelis boarding the flotilla etc. What’s amazing about this controversy is how people on both sides are acting like it’s self-evident that they’re right and the other side are evil monsters. E.g. GG on his blog is mad that Obama is hemming and hawing rather than condemning the actions like most other […]
