Its funny, but on this group I am faced only with Democratic functionaries 
pretending to be Libertarians, and Republicans who think they are Libertarians 
(I'll give you this, Dondero, you are open about where you are, and that is not 
insignificant).

I'm afraid I'm going to be leaving this group, so all you Democrats and 
Republicans can fight it out.

Ciao!

  You should simply switch to "Read on Web Mode" like many of us. 

  I care very little if you read my posts. 

  Why am I here? 

  For one purpose and one purpose only.

  Newbies to the libertarian movement are very likely to type in the 
  words "Libertarian" into Yahoo Groups. 

  If I was not here what would they see? 

  A bunch of posts from people apologizing for Islamo-Fascism, bashing 
  Bush 24/7, praising Leftists and Leftist ideology, and hating 
  America. 

  That IS NOT what the libertarian movement I've been working for for 
  the last 22 years is about. And I don't want ANYONE ON YAHOO 
  getting the wrong impression about libertarianism.
