Last week, Congress debated a resolution directing the President to withdraw our troops from Afghanistan no later than the end of this year. The Constitution gives the power to declare war to the Congress, so it is clearly appropriate for Congress to assert its voice on matters of armed conflict. In recent decades, however, Congress has defaulted on this most critical duty, essentially granting successive presidents the unilateral (and clearly unconstitutional) power to begin and end wars at will. This resolution was not expected to pass; however, the ensuing debate and floor vote served some very important purposes.

Join the members of the Liberty Conspiracy as they discuss issues ranging from the “Incorporation Doctrine” and gun rights, to the NBA, to protests conducted at military funerals, protests that are being challenged by government, and which will be heard by the philosopher kings in the U.S. Supreme Court.All these items are discussed, and more, by Citizen X, Furb, Gard, and Ziggy, who are just part of the shadowy group of libertarians who comprise the world-wide phenomenon of the Liberty Conspiracy!

Dive into the ring of political-philosophical disputation with the Liberty Conspiracy. The Conspiracy fights for the individual and recognizes the primacy of individual liberty. We don’t fool around, and we don’t stop.We mix intellect and creativity. We combine respect for our neighbor’s right to be free with the knowledge that there are many others like us who need to have their voices heard.

Welcome back to the Conspiracy. In this audio production, Gardner Goldsmith offers a long-lasting lesson on the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the so-called “incorporation doctrine.” He takes the leap point of the recent lawsuit challenging the city of Chicago’s ban on firearms, and extends his analysis to the Bill of Rights and even to scholars who miss some major points when it comes to understanding the wording and dynamic working of the Constitution of the U.S. (which, by the way, Gard believes does not even go far enough in defending his freedom).
