Where We Stand

Militant Libertarian — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 23:09:00 +0000

I received a preview copy of “Where We Stand: A Surprising Look at the Real State of Our Planet” by Seymour Garte, Ph.D. and have thoroughly enjoyed reading it. Unlike other books about the environment and how we’re apparently the #1 cause of its ruination, Dr. Garte takes a look at how we’ve improved, where [...] No related posts.

Retro Review: Hologram of Liberty

Militant Libertarian — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 02:10:00 +0000

Hologram of Liberty by Boston T. Party - By far the best analysis of the United States Constitution and its founding than any other anti-federalist book I’ve ever read. Boston documents and fully explains his premise with hard-to-refute proof, using quotes from the Founders themselves! Boston starts with a simple question, asked on the back [...] Related posts:

We Were Soldiers

starring Mel Gibson To be honest, it’s hard to go wrong with a movie starring Mel Gibson or in any way involving him. This one is no exception. For those who have read We Were Soldiers Once.. And Young by Lt. Col. Harold Moore, USMC (ret.), this is the movie based on that book and [...] Related posts:

The Machinist

starring Christian Bale I’ve become kind of a fan of Christian Bale, who has definitely been the best of the Batman series actors and has been in some other great flicks, some of which I’ve talked about here. This is another good one that shows not only Bale’s great talent on-screen, but his ability to [...] Related posts:

starring Jason Statham I thought this movie would probably be pretty good, since it stars an actor (Jason Statham) who is generally in some pretty decent movies. Some of his films have sucked, but others have been awesome. So I figured there was a decent change this one would be OK. Plus, it’s a period [...] Related posts:

Tempest At Dawn

Militant Libertarian — Sun, 13 Jun 2010 02:26:28 +0000

by James D. Best This is a historical novel based on the true events surrounding the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. It’s based mainly on the notes of James Madison and the letters and personal writings of Roger Sherman. Sherman was one of the few in attendance at the convention who had signed the Declaration of [...] No related posts.

starring Gerard Butler This movie turned out to be about what I’d expected it to be. It’s an OK movie based on a kind of cool sci-fi premise, but done with half-assed execution. The effects, acting, and so forth are what you expect and aren’t bad, but the editing sliced up the story, which become [...] No related posts.

Inglourious Basterds

starring Brad Pitt, Quentin Tarantino I actually thought this movie was a comedy when I saw the previews. It sort of is, but not really. In fact, to be blunt, about the only decent thing in this whole flick is Brad Pitt’s performance. I’m gaining a lot of respect for him as an actor. Otherwise, [...] Related posts:

Patent Absurdity

Militant Libertarian — Wed, 12 May 2010 17:08:53 +0000

by Jamie King, Luca Lucarini This is a documentary film outlining how software patents (aka “patents on processes”) have taken the patenting process and turned it into a legal playground where only the heavily lawyered-up can survive. Most would be amazed to know that just a couple of decades or so ago, there were no [...] No related posts.

How to be a Successful Tyrant

by Larken Rose A few months ago, I reviewed Larken’s first novel, The Iron Web. I was extremely impressed with that book and so was prompted to purchase another of his books. This time, I read How to be a Successful Tyrant. Obviously, from the title, it’s a tongue-in-cheek look at tyranny. That’s the surface [...] Related posts:
