Who is this radio host you speak of? Are you _sure_ he's a libertarian? Nationalized health care is against everything the Libertarian Party stands for! I'd like to know the names of these so-called Libertarians, especially this radio host you speak of and I'd like to confront them directly with this nonsense.

That radio host was Irv Homer, and I assume he is a libertarian - he says he is, and says he once ran to be come the VP candidate on the LP ticket in the 70's.

Now I don't know if he was trying to fan flames for his radio show or it was just because he hates Republicans, but I used to listen to his show every day (it came on after Rush in Philly) and distinctly remember him supporting nationalized health care. His reasoning was that since we pay so much money to the government in taxes, we should at least be "getting something for it".

Thanks for giving me his name, I appreciate it. I have shot off an email to his producer asking him to confirm whether he really believes it or was just being sarcastic. I'm guessing it was a sarcastic remark. I'll post his answer here if and when I receive one.

I received a reply yesterday from Irv Homer who stated that the comment about Hillary's plan was purely tongue-in-cheek.
