Ms. LaMarche will join Libertarian presidential candidate, Michael Badnarik, at a rally in front of the White House at LaFayette Park on Friday November 19 at noon. The rally has been organized by ReDefeatBush and other groups to protest the "botched" 2004 election and prepare for the "post-democracy era" under the second Bush Administration. The contact for ReDefeatBush is Joy Howell 202-828-7838, .
Citing widespread reports of voting irregularities, the Cobb/LaMarche and Badnarik campaigns recently launched a joint effort to hold a recount of presidential votes cast in Ohio during the November 2 election.
Ms. LaMarche will arrive in Washington, D.C. at 9 a.m. Friday morning and return to Maine at 6 p.m. the same evening. She can be reached by her cell phone at 646-202-0846 today or during the trip.

Why are they going to Washington? What could any one in DC do about the Ohio totals? Is this going to turn into one of those grossly underattended demonstrations where A.N.S.W.E.R. gets some whacko from every freak, faggot and anti-American organization in the world to blather about their pet hate? If so, we did that. Why not meet in Canton or Xenia or Lakewood? Hey, did some one remember to invite Ralph?
Several years ago, the Libertarian Party was looking somewhat tempting. Now, I see them as merely ***holes.
Paging George Soros
Libertarianism as a political philosophy is one thing, but the Libertarian party is another.
I am basically a pro-life, anti-gay, non-pot-smoking, pro War on Terror, small 'l' libertarian, if that makes any sense.
There's a great potential libertarian-leaning Republican ripe to run for President in 2008.
SC Gov. Mark Sanford!
Now, if I was in a fight, and my opponent was on the ropes, I'd do what I could to finish him off.
Not the American minor parties. They don't recognize an opening when they see one.
The dem's angered their blue collar, traditional, patriotic branch. They angered their leftist, green, anti-war branch.
You'd think that one of these leaders would recognize that the dems are ripe for history's ashcan...especially on the traditionalist side. A bunch of them voted pubbie and another bunch voted dem while hold their noses. And then there's the catholic dems who are hated by their own party.
A blue collar, independence, revisit the life issue, patriotic, union coalition could put the dems out of business and take their place in history.
OK-I don't mean anti-gay, I mean anti-gay marriage. Wanted to clarify that before I get flamed.
Good point. They should rally in OH. Maybe they think the PR they get there wouldnt be as good.
Now they are openly saying Bush stole the election. Just a few days ago they told us this wasnt about overturning the results. Gee, I guess these lefties lied! How shocking.
I guess it's good they continue to do what they do. Makes them look like even bigger nutjobs. If there were any real serious evidence of vote tampering by the GOP you can be sure Kerry, Edwards, Beckel, Carvel, etc would be out there leading the protests.
I took an on-line test not to long ago that was supposed to distinguish your party affiliation. I am a born and bred Republican but the answers I gave this test told me I should belong to the Libertariians. So much for on-line testing. The one's I have seen protesting have the same Bush-bashing potty mouths as the Dims.
I describe myself as follows:
A pro-life, anti-gay-marriage, non-pot-smoking, pro War on Terror, small 'l' libertarian.
In other words, a very conservative Republican!
Back in '97 we changed my son's diaper in Lafayette Park. What we left behind (no pun intended) was our little gift to Slick and Piano Legs.
They're probably civil servants with use or lose time to burn.
Sounds like the Libertarian Party has become the party of Kooks!
How can a so called be Libertarian be for "less government" join arms with Democrats who want "more government"? Something is not kosher here.
That is my belief also.. There is no way in hell that I'm not going to vote for the Libertarian Party ever after this stunt..
I don't understand that either.. I can see the Green Party, but not the Libertarian Party...
George Soros is in seclusion having a sex change operation; he wants to be in the cabinet when Hillary takes over.
I don't understand it either. Which is why this whole thing smells. It's also one of many reasons that I am not a member of the Libertarian party (there are several others).
