"I also think it was interesting to use the term libertarian in this article, a word that some have grown to look upon with intrepidation. Fred Thompson is running on the republican ticket, and that’s the only party that should be mentioned in relationship to him."


He used the term "libertarian" in its small "l" sense, not its big "L" sense, so I have no problem with it. There was a libertarian movement LONG before there was a Libertarian Party. In fact, one could say that the attraction of a lot of strange characters to the LP has made libertarianism look bad.
