"Noted Libertarian". Again BS, ansel. Chomsky is some sort weird aberration called a "Libertarian-Socialist" that even he doesn't understand, because it's an oxymoron.
The only person who considers Bill Maher "a Libertarian" is Bill Maher because it sounds good to him. In fact, he is a Flaming Liberal by anyone's account.
This is a partial list of notable individuals who subscribe to the the libertarian philosophy of small government, individual liberty and personal responsibility. Inclusion in this list does not imply support of any political party, organization, legislation, or specific issue. Not all of the people listed are large-L Libertarians.
Jason Alexander (CA/NY) Dave Barry (FL) Sandra Bernhard (CA) Lewis Black (CA) Dick Boddie (CA) Ernie Brown (NV) Dean Cameron (CA) John Cantu (CA) Drew Carey (CA), etc.
On Hefner, he calls himself "a Libertarian" but votes Liberal Democrat like Maher. Hef is more Libertine than Libertarian.
Ventura was Reform Party, then Independent Party, but shows up on a test as a Liberal Libertarian, so even he doesn't know what the hell he is.
