I had never heard of Porcfest before.  Sounds like something I would like.

It's nice to see that it is still moving along.

Agreed, and I do live in NH.  Those are the fringe libertarians, and they are vocal.  Still, or maybe because, they do have an effect on the laws in NH.  They helped defeat some of the anti-gun/anti-CCW laws this past year.

My oldest was part of that.  Actually in this 2012 pic:  http://www.savyon.com/GroupPicturePorcFest2012.jpg (http://www.savyon.com/GroupPicturePorcFest2012.jpg).  Yellow shirt, just over the "provided by fr33" sign.

Lady that was part of a libertarian activist list I was on back in the late '90s, early 2000s, is now a NH state rep.  And knew my son.  Small world.

Sadly, I can't bring myself to regard either Ron Paul or Rand Paul as true Libertarians. I have considered relocating to New Hampshire, but articles like this make me reconsider the urge. Time to look at states such as Pennsylvania, Virginia, Wyoming and Montana.

My biggest problem is the Venn Diagram of "naked Libertarians" and "good looking Libertarians" probably has very little,  if any overlap.

I didn't see anything negative in the article.

That's because the Pauls are NOT Libertarians, they're Republicans who lean somewhat libertarian. They're likely not small-l libertarians either, though Rand seems moreso than Ron to me. Both are better than any of their fellow officeholders, though.

Sarvis is in this year's race for Senate, seeking to replace statist Mark Warner here in VA. Try and tell me THAT wouldn't be a net win! And we've got Libertarians running for the Representatives' seats, too - it'd be nice if Harrold replaced Connelly, though Connelly is not horrible.

I would argue they are small "r" republicans who lean heavily libertarian.

You're just not sex positive enough to support the crossdressers like a good Libertarian ought to...
