In a bizarre set of events, mirror that of the television show "The Prisoner, "FURB has been asked repeatedly to run for the Vice-Chairman of the Salt Lake County Republican Party. I plan on emphasizing local control (the ultimate local control) and adherance to the Constitution and By-laws of the Republican Party.
I am a reluctant candidate. The whole process only lends legitimacy to politics in general. But if it wasn't for political campaigns undertaken by such people as Harry Browne, Mary Ruwart, and Ron Paul, I wouldn't be where I am today (philosophically). I plan to do as little as possible in this race, but will be holding a press conference on tax day, and speaking at a Tea-party event (albeit briefly) about how it is not necessary to have legal tender laws, unless one wants to promote a weaker currency.
Hey Furb,
I hear you with regards to the politics thing. I would see myself very much as an anarcho-capitalist, but we have elections coming up, here in Northern Ireland, and I am left wondering (as I do every year) whether or not to vote.
I usually end up voting - albeit, strategically - ie: keep the hardliners out of power. This year, however, I e-mailed our closest thing to a classical liberal/ fiscally conservative party (try saying that with a mouth full of alco-pop) and asked them their views on immigration and reducing the size of government.
Anyway, enough about my plight - here's how I see yours:- whatever you can do to dilute the contaminated waters of political sleeze is a good thing. I don't see things in black and white - some people (as we saw from Daniel Hanman's recent onslaught on PM Gordon Brown re: bailouts) do a LOT to showcase the libertarian mindset within the realm of politics, and I applaud them for it.
From that perspective, I wish you all the very best with your new position and look forward to hearing more about both the highs and the sighs of your experience.
Well, I've called a press conference for tomorrow, re: my race for intra-party vice-chair. I don't think anyone will show, but I'll be in downtown Salt Lake City protesting the gub'ment, and may even be allowed to make a speach at the gigantic protest that has been permitted. I plan on giving them the what for. I will try and procure video of this talk, if it occurs.
If the press conference is at all attended by member of the corporate controlled propaganda propagators, then I will post that as well.
Thanks for the well wishing HOO-HAA!
Well thank goodness that another lover of liberty, Curtis Constantine has entered the race. I am NOT seeking the position of vice-chair.
I am showing up to support Curtis Constantine for vice-chair of the republican party of Salt Lake County Utah. Curtis is some sort of way cool chess guru, and in his honor, I am doing a wu-tang clan themed expression of support with my clan.
Wu-Tang Clan are a hip-hop cadre of artists. Many of their songs are devoted to Chess and to martial arts films.
Here are some possible slogans I have come up with. "Wu-Tang pimpin' CURTIS for VICE." Ninja's and Chessmen support CURTIS for VICE" Me and my kids will be at the Salt Lake County Republican Party Convention tomorrow morning before heading to the End the Fed Rally in Downtown Salt Lake City, with our balloons that say "T.A.R.P. Baby" on them.
