TNR Anoints the Next Ron Paul

As I write this post, I feel the same way as I do on the 4th of July when I light a bottle rocket and then run away… How do you kids like this? Scott Sumner is touting Gary Johnson, and The New Republic says he is the next Ron Paul. If the article is […]

Fox News Incredible Deception on Ron Paul CPAC Win

This is absolutely incredible. I have tried to figure out if this is a reverse hoax (i.e. a fake YouTube setting up Fox News), but I don’t see how. I realize it’s a bit long, but I encourage you to sit through the whole thing. By the end, you will realize why all the elements […]

On the WaPo Hit Piece on DiLo

In this article I become the anti-zombie, and defend Tom DiLorenzo from the shocked finger pointing of the Washington Post’s Dana Milbank (who is a guy, I have verified).

Post-Game Show From Iowa

I’m back at my office after the Campaign for Liberty shindig in Des Moines. (Remember, I am the hardest working man in Austro-libertarianism: This weekend I’m in Manhattan for a Mises Circle.)
