Give me a break. A leftist libertarian is an oxymoron, regardless of how many leftists say otherwise. It seems that every leftist on this site at one point (a) claims to be a libertarian, and (b) denies being a leftist. What's the matter? Have you people not the of your convictions? I have yet to see anyone on the right apologize for that or deny they are. Here. Ignore Granny's BS. This is a libertarian. siliconinvestor.com DO you agree that You have the right to earn a living, but not to compel others to provide your living. ......................................................... If somebody takes your property without your permission, it is theft (an initiation of force). It's theft regardless of whether the loot is used to buy drugs or to feed the poor. It is theft regardless of whether there is 1 thief or 20 million thieves. It is theft regardless of whether the gang calls itself the "Sons of Satan" or the "Internal Revenue Service." .......................................................... Government should not initiate force to seize the property of individuals. Government should not initiate force to compel service to the state. Government should not initiate force to impose lifestyles or moral codes. Government should not even initiate force when "it's for your own good." In a free society, you have property rights. You can use honestly acquired property in any way that does not constitute initiation of force or fraud, trespass on the property of others, or violate agreements you have voluntarily entered into. You decide which charities to support, and don't have to sacrifice your property against your will for purposes that others decide on rather than you. ......................................................... If someone owns an AK-47 and uses it to murder school children, it is the murder that is the initiation of force, not the ownership of the AK-47. ......................................................... In the old days people sometimes had to answer to the church for their crimes. Some thought they could lessen the gravity of their offenses by claiming possession. "Your Holiness, the devil made me do it." What we often hear today is "Your Honor, the drugs made me do it" or "Your Honor, the pornography made me do it" or "Your Honor, my unhappy childhood made me do it." More: lp.org lp.org

I'm shocked, shocked! </sarcasm off> Report Shows Liberal Third Party Groups Efforts to Circumvent Law and Register Illegal Voters in 2004 Blogs for Bush (bumped, from March 23, 6:25 pm) Tuesday, the nonpartisan American Center for Voting Rights released a report that outlines preliminary findings of registration fraud, intimidation, vote fraud and litigation in the state of Ohio for the 2004 election. The report shows how Democrat groups such as ACT, ACORN, and the NAACP were the ones largely engaging in these types of illegal activities. The full report and press release are available online on their website (link below). My first look over this report was illuminating and disturbing. Liberal groups undertook a massive coordinated effort to undermine the voting process in the state of Ohio. Barbara Boxer is... not saying anything about this apparently... UPDATE: Jason Smith is not surprised... Key excerpts posted in extended entry: Page 5: <<< Third party organizations, especially ACT, ACORN, and NAACP engaged in a coordinated “Get Out The Vote” effort. A significant component of this effort appears to be registering individuals who would cast ballots for the candidate supported by these organizations. This voter registration effort was not limited to registration of legal voters but, criminal investigations and news reports suggest, that this voter registration effort also involved the registration of thousands of fictional voters such as the, now infamous, Jive F. Turkey, Sr., Dick Tracy and Mary Poppins. Those individuals registering these fictional voters were reportedly paid not just money to do so but were, in at least one instance, paid in crack cocaine. The fraudulent voter registrations, however, appear to be only part of the effort of these organizations to influence the election. There was an apparently coordinated national litigation strategy to manipulate election laws in battleground states and, specifically, to eliminate the provisions of election law that would prevent vote fraud. >>> Page 7: <<< ACORN/Project Vote's activities in Ohio appear to be just part of a pattern of activities observed across the country, in which their workers submitted fraudulent voter registration information to election authorities. ACORN/Project Vote is closely aligned with ACT, SEIU and NAACP National Voter Fund through the America Votes Coalition, a coordinating council of approximately 30 liberal interest groups. >>> Page 10: <<< Third party organizations were notorious for submitting faulty, incomplete or outright fraudulent registrations across the country. 2 Ohio was not spared this onslaught of fraudulent voter registrations. Boards of elections were flooded with hundreds, if not thousands, of faulty and fraudulent registration cards. Worse still, these groups collected and compiled these cards for months, apparently holding back new voter registration cards and delivering them to election authorities on or shortly before the statutory deadline. This delay in submitting these voter registrations minimized the ability of election authorities to validate the registrations. This delay also left legitimate registrants unable to determine if their registrations were accepted and to timely correct any errors. >>> Posted by Matt blogsforbush.com ac4vr.com texasrainmaker.blogspot.com Ö¿Ö
