James thanks for this lesson on Libertarians. When I lived in Philly, I
never encountered the Ron Paul type of libertarian-- in fact, I found I

GOP. They are LINO's (Libertarians in Name Only) and they are
You answered it right on. For the last several years I've noticed that the
people I hear who claim to be Libertarian--and I didn't mention Neal Boortz,
