An Apology (to Politicians)

Posted by: Norman | Comments View Comments

We would like to apologize for the way in which politicians are represented in this blog, on its podcasts, or in its videos.

It was never our intention to imply that politicians are weak-kneed, incompetent, political time-servers who are concerned more with their personal vendettas and private power struggles than the problems of government, nor to suggest at any point that they sacrifice their credibility and what virtue they have left by denying free debate on vital matters in the mistaken impression that party unity comes before the well-being of the people they supposedly represent nor to imply at any stage that they are squabbling malodorous little toadies without an ounce of concern for the vital social problems of today. Nor indeed do we intend that readers should consider them as ulcerous little self-seeking vermin with furry legs and an excessive addiction to alcohol and certain explicit sexual practices which some people might find offensive.

We are sorry if this impression has come across.

This Public Service Announcement brought to you by Monty Python, the Spanish Inquisition, and the letter Nih. And now back to your regularly scheduled programme.

In memoriam

Posted by: Norman | Comments View Comments

On this day, not-so-many years ago, over 200,000 people died because an evil man thought it would be politically useful. Now, if I left it at that, no one I know would hesitate to condemn such an action. But if you tell them it was Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the same people will rise up in defense of their beloved Harry Truman and how he did it to keep more people from dying, elevating the office of president from politician to prophet for who else could tell the future and make such a claim.

Don’t let your ends justify your means.

I’m out of town at the moment for this year’s NAMS conference, so I don’t have much time to write. But, I’d like to share speedily some recent links I’ve noted on a variety of topics.

First, Amazon.com is offering an incredible deal for students: 1 free year of Amazon Prime. All you have to do is provide a valid .edu email address and your account will be credited. Take advantage of this while you still can, because I have no idea how long it will last. And remember, if you shop at Amazon through an LCC link, a small percentage of your sale is credited to LCC. (Yay! Support LCC!)

Doug Stuart has recently written a couple of nice articles at his blog: Can a Christian Be a Libertarian? and Christianity and Libertarianism, Part 1: Non-Aggression. I hope part 2 is coming soon!

My hero Laurence Vance has three articles posted this month at LewRockwell.com, and all are worth reading. US Presidents and Those Who Kill for Them chronicles military and executive crimes. Gun Liberty and McDonald is an objective look at the positives and negatives of the recent McDonald ruling in the Supreme Court, which ruled Chicago’s draconian gun laws unconstitutional. The American Warmonger’s Bible reviews what I would call the worst Bible ever printed (worse than the Green Bible), the so-called “Patriot” Bible.

Bill Grigg shares some recent news on American torturers and how torture affects one’s psyche.

Stephan Kinsella says that J.H. Huebert’s new book, Libertarianism Today, is the greatest introduction to libertarianism, ever. Looks like I need to pick this one up.

And finally, a comic from Frank and Ernest:

One more step toward a PhD…

Posted by: Norman | Comments View Comments

In other news… Today I passed my preliminary oral examination/presentation for my PhD at UT-Austin. I’ve been so busy working on the presentation for this auspicious event that I haven’t even written my recap of the SFL Conference in DC (not to mention I was also writing the Joe Stack article that was posted at LRC yesterday morning).

Sooooooo, one more milestone down, about 250 experiments more to go. Better get cracking. Anyway, yay for me, blah blah blah. I’m excited. :-D
