I just think we should rally together all voices of freedom loving people. Even with all the differences between "factions" of libertarians, objectivists, capitalists, constitutionalist, Chicago School, Austrian School, or leaning Rep. and Dems. Push forward the natural rights and then argue over our semantics afterwards. We are all too divided for anyone to push larger numbers in elections. So that one day these groups of people will argue, over what pork programs to cut, whats too intervening, and debate who supports more freedom you or I, etc....

Sorry, if I tend romanticize this movement.

What would a "friend" be exactly? Id say Neil Cavuto and Glenn Beck are friends to them- They were(and still are) the largest mainstream terrible cable news reporters whom consistently showcase libertarians(Ron Paul, Peter Schiff to be precise) in a positive light. Never calling them "weird" or "crazy" (at least not anymore). Beck had Penn Jillete on there a while ago too. Greenspan couldn't be friend since he more or less threw freemarket idealist under the bus, to cover his own ass.

I wish some these "celebrities" were as open and vocal about their politics as the far left entitlement crazies in Hollywood. Unfortunately, to get more notice, we have to make it "cool".

Beck has had Penn on his show more than once... I think roughly about 5 to 7 times, actually. The last one I remember was Penn going "well, you'll sit there & argue :something something: while I'm here arguing for anarcho-capitalism".

I don't really like the term itself, but admittedly it was also another surprising first, in 2008, to hear that on the air.

It should be updated to remove Barr asap.

Haha I agree, and Greenspan should be taken off the list of "Friends of libertarianism"

Haha, seriously

We're looking a little weak in the "members of Congress" category :) But maybe Naomi Wolf will be added to the "feminists" list soon...

Nice to have some voices for freedom out there, but I do suspect that a lot of public "libertarians" or more "pot-itarians" (not that this is a bad thing...), or "libertinian," if you know what I mean.

You should read the forum rules on signature links. It's a no-no. Otherwise I and many others would be doing it.

Thanks for that. John Stossel is probably my favorite journalist.

Here is a list of celebrity libertarians. I thought I would share it with you, as I was incredibly suprised with a majority of them..

It should be updated to remove Barr asap.

Unfortunately I have nothing to do with the site other than reading through it five minutes ago.

Indeed :0
