If you find yourself in New England this weekend and are sympathetic to the aims and objectives of the Tea Party then come on down to Worcester, Massachusetts this Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. for the Worcester Tea Party Tax Day Rally.
I have been invited to speak at this event. The featured speaker is Libertarian Party presidential candidate and former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson.
The Greater Boston Tea Party is also involved with this event and I will be spending some at their table for some chit-chat.
For further details, please check out the Worcester Tea Party.
I hope to see you on Sunday.

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

I have no doubt that Johnson will also be attending this year's "PorcFest" Liber-tarian debauchery as well...

Just what the Tea Party DOES NOT need: mush from moderates.

" If you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism. I think conservatism is really a misnomer just as liberalism is a misnomer for the liberals–if we were back in the days of the Revolution, so-called conservatives today would be the Liberals and the liberals would be the Tories. The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is.
Now, I can’t say that I will agree with all the things that the present group who call themselves Libertarians in the sense of a party say, because I think that like in any political movement there are shades, and there are libertarians who are almost over at the point of wanting no government at all or anarchy. I believe there are legitimate government functions. There is a legitimate need in an orderly society for some government to maintain freedom or we will have tyranny by individuals. The strongest man on the block will run the neighborhood. We have government to insure that we don’t each one of us have to carry a club to defend ourselves. But again, I stand on my statement that I think that libertarianism and conservatism are traveling the same path."
