Gard's got McCain in a box over his pro-life stance, and El G also has some cool information about Alexander Solzhenitsyn to give you, plus a lot of cool music and manly sarcasm...
When you wanna mix political principles and soemthing a little more enjoyable than talking about Obama and McCain, what do you do? You call on the great Tom Monteleone!
Get politicians out of power, destroy the mechanism called gubment, and let free people work with one another in free commerce. That is the way to answer the current financial mess in the US, according to El G Grande and a growing number of pro-liberty "youngsters". See what you think, as Gard investigates the economic history of gubment
The Liberty Conspiracy is now going world wide, with its first special presentation, this time, Gard explores the dangerous activity of government getting involved in the valuation and issuance of currency. Check it out, Strongbad!
