Podcast: Discussing Prominent Issues Facing The Nation With Former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson

Tue, 12/22/2009 - 11:03am | posted by United Liberty Staff

Welcome Instapundit readers!

In a special podcast, Jason and Brett interview former governor of New Mexico, Gary Johnson to discuss the Our America Initiative political advocacy committee, as well as the issues facing our nation, and what he sees as solutions.

Earlier this year, former Governor Johnson embarked on two new journeys, writing The Seven Principles of Good Government and serving as the honorary chairman of the Our America Initiative. In the interview, Johnson discusses the economy, health care, civil liberties, the War on Drugs, the War on Terror, the environment, and his ample use of the veto pen.

We would like to once again thank Governor Johnson, as well Sue Winchester, the Media Relations Representative for the Our America Initiative.

You can download the podcast here (35 minutes/32 MB). The always lovely Aimee Allen graces us with “Silence is Violence” in the music that opens the interview.

Why Won’t This Guy Go Away?

Tax Hike Mike is back in the news:

Mike Huckabee is using his new book, out this week, to settle a few scores, not the least of which is with his fierce primary rival, Mitt Romney. Per Michael Scherer, Huckabee picks up where he left off earlier this year, tweaking Romney as a rich guy and firing what may be the first shots of the 2012 primary. Romney, Huckabee, writes, was “anything but conservative until he changed the light bulbs in his chandelier in time to run for president.”

Come the Revolution

Come the Revolution

For decades my now 85-year-old mother would preface comments on the state of the nation with the phrase, “Come the revolution…”.

I don’t think, considering the underhanded and unconstitutional machinations of Congress in trying to pass Obamacare that the revolution she envisioned is far off.

What has amazed me for most of my adult life is the ease at which creeping statism can infiltrate our daily lives, so incrementally subtle that I have most feared that only a few of us were paying attention, and thus, the statists would achieve their goal.

Today I’m just as amazed at our current president and his cadre of far-left-of-center lackeys who, in the face of enraged, engaged and reawakened Americans, think we’ll actually watch them strip the United States Constitution of any checks, balances and accountability, and then shrug our shoulders, sigh and go on about our business.

I have so long believed the left knew better than to actually try so blatant a game-changing shift in the individual’s relationship to government, that I thought I’d miss the revolution.

Now I get to be part of it.

As Charles Krauthammer pointed out in a column last week, the American voter is more actively involved in the political process than any time I can remember, and I’m not all that young anymore.

Kent Snyder 1959 - 2008

Kent was a huge inspiration and hero to many people here at United Liberty. His teachings through numerous appearances at Freedom 21 Santa Cruz Radio helped simplify and instill a strong libertarian foundation, showing us the light if you will, that is still growing to this day. Without this great man I would simply not be here today doing what little I am able to do for this great cause.

I agree wholeheartedly with Justine Lam who said it simply “Kent Snyder is my hero”.
