That has been my experience as well. It is a mechanism to draw libertarians away from the Libertarian Party, weakening it. In the meantime, their activity is lost in the "far from liberty oriented" Republican Party.

I once had an e-mail discussion with a high level member of the RLC and asked him his position on jury nullification. He gave me the standared libertarian answer favoring it. When I asked if the main line RNC shared his view, the answer was NO. So what good is being a part of the RLC with no influence on the RNC?

If your opinions are libertarian, join the Libertarian Party or you are being used as a patsy.

It depends on if you mean liberty or license. If you mean liberty, join the RLC; if you mean license, join the Libertarian Party. I believe there is a link to the RLC website on the main FR page. It is not a libertarian group. It is a local control group. That was my take.

Lost? Ask Dick Riordan.

What we're doing is political aikido: using the mass and momentum of the GOP to direct it where we want it to go. It's a patient process, requiring steady effort from energetic liberty-minded voters.

I'd love to count you among them someday. We will re-make the Republican Party, and we will improve America.
