The world turned upside down:

Sarah Palin chided by libertarians, as “not really a libertarian” gave the Big ‘F’ You to Obama yesterday, by refusing to accept Stimulus money that would require Alaskans to adopt stringent building codes on buildings and private residences.

Meanwhile, Ron Paul, who often gets praised as a “libertarian,” votes in favor of one of the most Authoritarian anti-Liberty bitches on the planet: Nancy Pelosi.

And whose a “real libertarian”??? Run that by me again?

Funny you don’t see any glaring headlines by my old pal Stephen here at Liberty Papers about Palin’s ‘F’ You to Obama.

And here’s an even weirder one:

RON PAUL ONE OF ONLY TWO REPUBLICANS IN THE HOUSE TO VOTE FOR NANCY PELOSI YESTERDAY

That’s right, Paul was joined by Walter Jones in voting against a Congressional investigation into Pelosi’s lies on Waterboarding and the CIA.

Rack one up for all you Paul fans out there. You really gotta winner there. Probably the most hated Bitch in the world by libertarians, and Ron Paul, a supposed “libertarian” votes in favor of her.

Constitutionally, Sanford is definitely in the right, and more states should follow South Carolina’s lead. The federal government does not have the authority to fund or regulate education beyond protecting students from discrimination. States should tell the feds to “stick it!” The feds fund 7% of education. Ditch the federally mandated standardized testing and you could make up a lot of that cost. Open up school choice like Washington D.C. had done and South Carolina is trying to do, and you can increase per-student funding in the public schools, while all students state-wide are getting a better quality education at a cheaper price.

If Sanford loses this battle, my hope for change on this issue will probably be crushed. If he wins, I think you will see success in SC in the long run and more states will follow his lead.

Considering that the current shooting drug-war going on in Mexico is fueling calls for de-facto repeal of the Second Amendment, Tancredo may have figured out that we will soon have to choose between maintaining the drug war or retaining our right to keep and bear arms.
