A Brief Update

Tea Party Protesters at Nashville's War Memorial Auditorium Feb 27, 2009

Hey folks! As you already know if you're a regular reader here, I try to keep the Humble Libertarian updated roughly once a day. I take days off now and then like yesterday and the day before.

The reason this time is that I was preparing for the Nashville Tea Party Protest that took place a few hours ago today in Legislative Plaza on the steps of the War Memorial Auditorium.

ANNOUNCEMENT:

I also want to let you know to be sure and check my blog out on Sunday March 1st for a really cool new feature that I will start doing on the first of every month here at the Humble Libertarian.

I. Principles Any political movement is doomed to failure so long as it is merely fighting for a particular, isolated policy preference or even a set of such preferences, absent of any context and underived from or related to a unified framework for viewing reality, humankind's role in reality, and government's role in humanity. The following (originally published in the Dec. 2008 article " Six Reasons Not To Bailo...

IRS Admits Targeting Tea Party!

You think Matt Drudge is just being hysterical in that screenshot above? With that ALL CAPS headline about the IRS? Being hysterical, while trying to sell you chocolate covered strawberries for Mother's Day? Well guess again, because you know this is seriously crazy when even the AP is using all caps for their headline , and filing it under a subdomain called "bigstory": The AP says : The Internal Revenue Service inappropriately flagged conservative political groups for additional reviews during the 2012 election to see if they were violating their tax-exempt status, a top IRS official said Friday. Organizations were singled out because they included the words "tea party" or "patriot" in their applications for tax-exempt status, said Lois Lerner, who heads the IRS division that oversees tax-exempt groups. In some cases, groups were asked for their list of donors, which violates IRS policy in most cases, she said. "That was wrong. T...
