Google closes George Reisman's blog

Just going through my blog roll at random and I clicked on my link to George Reisman's blog. Apparently earlier this month, Google locked him out of his own blog either due to complaints or whatever that his blog was declared "spam". Now he posts from his own website, capitalism.net.

So much for free speech. Thanks Google.

Think You Know What "Sovereign" means....

...wrong. Obama and crew have a different idea, and it is harmful to America. Very harmful.

Voices for Reason added

It is with great pleasure that I add The Ayn Rand Center for Individual Rights' new blog to my blog roll. Visit Voices for Reason, and be enlightened.

This is truly disgusting, and not surprising in the least, knowing Bush and conservatives

What this story amounts to, in essence is, I'm going to murder you in order to save you from any more suffering....

"Bush says he sacrificed free-market principles to save economy"

http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=081216215816.8g97981o&show_article=1

Let's see, under Bush the growth of government and regulation has doubled, if not tripled. The size of the deficit has grown by a trillion dollars. He's all but demolished the seperation of church and state.
Is there anything "free" left in America, let alone the marketplace?

The Law of Church and State in America

The First Amendment Center has posted online an apparently long-lost book on the history of church/state issues here in America. This is an issue very important to me and to each American's freedom of thought.
I'm eager to see the Objectivist answer to this coming in the summer of 2009!
