Tom, Oops. It looks like you are right and I was wrong. I'm not sure why I saw aggression in the email before, but I think I was reading Kobeta as speaking for you. After rereading it and the policy closer, I don't see any. I sounds perfectly libertarian now and I'm sorry for making the accusation. My only salvation may be that the article might have been easier for a simpleton like me to comprehend had it left out the confusing (and unnecessary) statements by your detractors. -Mark PS: Actually I did this intentionally to draw more attention to your cause. Nothing like a little conflict to get people's attention :)
++++++++++++++++++++ I tried to ignore this but I guess I must respond. There is no force or government aggression promoted by the "Policy Statement" we ask candidates to substantively agree with and place on their website. Party A, Stonewall Libertarians, is offering their endorsement IF the candidate, Party B, substantively agrees with our "Policy Statement" and agrees to upload it to their website. If any candidate does not wish to do this, no one is forcing them to. The result is simply that they will not receive our endorsement. I saw a movie today. They charged me $9.00. Am I to say that force was involved since I could not see the movie without paying them the $9.00. Ridiculous! This involves a voluntary contractual relationship. If both parties agree to the terms of the contact, then a meeting of the minds occur. And I don't believe anything in the "Policy Statement" calls for government aggression. If someone thinks that, then be more explicit.
