I have a blog entry in which I described Justin Raimondo as a libertarian:
http://kenthink7.blogspot.ca/2012/03/justin-raimondo-on-death-of-shaima.html
I had this comment:
Eric Dondero said...
Raimondo is NOT a libertarian. He is a hardcore Moveon.org/DailyKos
Soros-funded Leftist who has infiltrated the libertarian movement.
Please correct your article.
Dondero has his own website. Just click on his name. I have never heard of him
before.
Cheers, ken

I have observed a good deal of internal squabbling among libertarian
economists. There is a big divide within the Austrian camp. One group
sticks very close to the writings of Mises and Rothbard and criticizes
the work of Hayek. Joseph Salerno and Peter Klein are examples of this
group. Some in this camp think Hayek was a socialist!
Another group sticks closer to Hayek, maintaining that Hayek's work is a
critic of Mises and goes beyond praxology. Within this Hayek group there
is another divide that splits between followers of Israel Kirzner and
followers of Ludwig Lachmann. When O'Driscoll and Rizzo published the
"Economics of Time and Ignorance" they adopted Lachmann's view of social
order and the book was strongly attacked.
Then there are the neo-classical libertarians who attack Austrian
economics. Brian Caplan and Tyler Cowen have written critiques of
Austrian views. David Friedman is also a libertarian who doesn't have
time for the Austrians.
