Hammer of Truth ripped a new one into Eric Dondero Rittberg recently, a perennial libertarian poseur who confuses being a Libertarian with being a libertarian.
Yes Virginia, there is a difference. Being a small "l" libertarian involves adherence to libertarian philosophy. A big "L" Libertarian is a member of a political party, some of whom actually are both Libertarians and libertarians.
Not being a stranger to Donderberg's insane ramblings and double-talk (we frequent a few of the same libertarian discussion lists), I joined in the fray. There is always room for more libertarians who don't confuse being a member of a party with actually caring about the underlying philosophy.
