    Nah, Grover is a nobody and not all that closely tied to the Liberals masquerading as libertarians. He was plenty up Republican asses as well. Milton Friedman and Murray rothbard share most of the blame. Along with the Koch brothers.

      At least Rothbard realized as he was dying that the other conservatives were playing him for a chump.

        And that’s always a good thing. I just wish they’d realize that before their mortality was before them and they had no chance to make amends. Lifetimes of damage are hard to un do.

      Found it amusing when Rothbard came out pro-immigration restrictions and worked so hard to explain why it wasn’t racist when he did it.
