Pro-Life Movement: Not Just for Religious Nuts Anymore!

Friday, October 22nd, 2004

I just submitted this letter to my local newspaper. It succinctly explains the often-overlooked scientific arguments that support the pro-life position. If you like this letter, feel free to use as much of it as you want in your own letter to your local rag.

Orwellian Leftist Term of the Day: Social Justice, Man

Friday, October 22nd, 2004

One of the intellectually-bankrupt Left’s favorite terms to throw around is Social Justice.

Friday, October 22nd, 2004

The final results of the Free State Project are in and Free Staters have wisely chosen to move, en masse, to my home state of New Hampshire, ultimately making it the first state to be liberated from the oppressive yoke of federal-government-on-acid.

Lesson in Liberty: What is the Matrix?

Friday, May 16th, 2003

Greetings, fellow Coppertops. The Matrix is Caesar! (Not that I’m obsessed about it or anything…ok, maybe a little.)
The plot was far more “Brave New World” than it was Christian. The Matrix itself was a representation of government creating a tightly controlled world for its citizens, most of whom had no idea they [...]

Hodji’s Liberty Buzz

Wednesday, May 7th, 2003

Here’s Hodji’s latest Liberty Buzz:

Look, if the Libertarian Party, the should-be beacon of Constitutional Liberty in this country, can’t even get it right, then how can we possibly expect more from the sheeple? Ilana Mercer refines the Samurai’s theme of McLiberty in her latest article. And Jason B. Romano give a good rigorous [...]
