In Libertarian news, the 2008 Libertarian Party Presidential Debate will be broadcast live from Heartland Libertarian Convention in Kansas City on Saturday, April 5. You can hear it on KCXL or Blog Talk Radio.

The debate will feature George Phillies; Wayne Allyn Root; Christine Smith; Michael Jingozian; Dr. Mary J. Ruwart; and Mike Gravel. It will start at 10:00 a.m. Central Standard Time, so it will be at 8 a.m. Saturday morning Pacific Standard Time (For those of us on the West Coast!).

Also, a 30-minute recap of the debate is scheduled! I urge all those interested or curious about third-party politics to listen in for my party's candidates.

In other news, it seems the Right Wing's spokeswoman, the 'beloved' Ann Coulter, made headlines this week when she compared Obama's autobiography, "Dreams From My Father", to "Mein Kampf".

She does make some interesting points, but this is, by far, not the first time a candidate has been Godwin-ed in the news. Does this mean we can stop paying attention to Ann Coulter now, as she'll have noting more of value to say? Lord, I really hope so.

"Remember what I told you, Mr. Snerdley: There are no rules in the Democrat Party, there are only customs and traditions. Don't frown at me! Do you realize what a brilliant observation that is?" Rush Limbaugh, March 5 broadcast, 2008.

Love him or loathe him, the Right listens to Rush. Why? He’s entertaining. He’s bombastic. But answering beyond that, well, that’s why I listen to Rush.

Plenty of brave souls willingly espouse their political beliefs in public, but few delve the depths of why it matters to them so much as does Rush. I’ve been thinking a lot about Rush lately, and not because he’s so brazenly self-congratulatory. More so because he’s been saying the same thing for so many years and people still listen. 

From what I gather that message all boils down to this: The Democratic Party wants to destroy this country.
