From The Liberator Online:
QUICK SHOTS...
* Libertarian Named #1 Tax Cutter in Congress: Human Events, a highly
respected conservative publication, has named libertarian Congressman Ron
Paul (R-TX) the top tax cutter in the U.S. House of Representatives. Human
Events noted that Congressman Paul "is a co-sponsor... of a constitutional
amendment to repeal the Sixteenth amendment and end income, gift, and
estate taxes. Regularly pushes for tax cuts. Sponsor of bills to allow tax
credits for private school tuition, to permit tax deduction of college
tuition, and to stop all taxation of Social Security benefits. Opposes all
unconstitutional spending programs."
Congratulations!

* Lots of Libertarians: "Gallup polls have consistently found that 20
percent of Americans are neither liberal nor conservative but libertarian,
opposing the use of government either to "promote traditional values" or to
"do too many things that should be left to individuals and businesses."
That's only slightly below the percentages for liberals and conservatives."
