Rand Paul and the Hypocrisy of Mainstream Libertarians At it's core, Libertarianism is ostensibly concerned with personal liberty and freedom. However, its modern incarnation appears far more concerned with scoring cheap political points while championing corporate interests over the rights of individuals. Dr. Rand Paul's media debacles last week have served to further expose the movement's hypocrisy.

So Rush lied. Again. So what? Calling Rush out on his lies may be the duty of any left-leaning fact-checker. But without a proactive means of reaching his audience, we will only further alienate the open-minded among his flock.

Obama, Osama and the Making of a Martyr No matter how inevitable bin Laden's death may have been, we should be careful not to characterize it as a victory. At minimum, his story serves to illuminate our own failure to create an equitable society in which violent ideologies hold no influence. Yet in a more practical sense, we must understand that his death does nothing to erase his ideas and may contrarily serve to strengthen his adherent's resolve.

Amnesty for Iraqi Insurgents may be Our Best Hope Progressives should not be too quick to denounce amnesty. Done with wisdom and prudence, as well as equal participation, amnesty may represent our best hope of staunching the damage in this disastrous war.

How Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bush Sr. and Ronald Reagan helped create modern terrorism Partisan Republicans should be cautious about lauding Reagan's cowboy era while attacking Clintonian diplomacy, since the policies of the "second" Cold War represent a far more potent antecedant for the threats we face today.

There are more than two options for Iran! The Bush administration's dichotomous framing of national security has indelibly tainted public debate on Iran and is preventing liberals from addressing a potentially legitimate threat.

Fox News Loves Terrorism If FOX News "leaked" a memo implying terrorists are rejoicing in a Democratic victory, maybe it is because Murdhock is afraid that the Democrats may subvert FOX's raison d'etre.
