I'm calling out the official Libertarian position on the war as being unlibertarian. At www.lp.org the Libertarians state: "it is time we look at some real facts. We are indeed nation building. We are playing policeman in a civil war. We have attacked and killed thousands of people in Iraq because of the actions of a terrorist from Saudi Arabia."

Libertarians should know the difference between facts and opinions. The truth is that lp.org has no idea of our national defense interests in Iraq, neither do you, neither do I, neither does the media, neither does congress. That's why management of the war has to come from those on the ground in coordination with the commander in chief. The idea that any war effort should be managed by politicians in Washington is big government liberalism, not libertarianism.
