Message: Entry: Who Is Matt Welch? Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/who_is_matt_welch#22256 Post contents: Who took the "liberty" out of "libertarian?" Paul, Rockwell, Rothbard, even Buchanan, each state unequivocally what it is that they value and believe. The clarity of their separate works makes guesswork and pseudo "exposes" completely unnecessary. On the other hand, some men, like Welch, present themselves as defenders of liberty while adhering to ideas which are in direct opposition to the "image" they create. Here God Himself gives us profitable advice: we can "know a man by the fruit he bares." Paul's campaign broke through the wall of silence imposed by these phonies, awakened that wonderful spirit of independence and enabled us to begin again speaking aloud about the important issues he raises. Paul reminds us that this is not yet a dictatorship where we dare not trust who might frown on what we say. Finally, one of the greatest achievements of this reawakening has been to expose the manipulative "thought police" for who the are. Feels good, doesn't it! Lastly, a response to LOGAN BRAINETREE: Your mind is becoming free and independent, don't stop reading! Lincoln-worship is the last vestige of a mental serf. Time to go beyond the State-sanctioned descriptive. Much of what we've been taught to think has intentionally had all context removed, leaving "useful snippets." Start reading Lincoln's own words.. Testing your beliefs about the man against what he actually said is the first step toward reclaiming your independence. Good luck! (Thomas Woods' well-researched works will also enlighten.)
