George Donnelly, it’s unfair of you to assume this letter “plays fast and loose with the facts”. For all you know, the Outright Libertarians possess a time machine that lets them go forward in time to assess the forthcoming evidence about the new charges in Flood’s resolution, and then back in time to have them be answered in Phillies’ articles (which in our current branch of the time continuum are not about Flood’s charges at all, but rather are about other supposedly equivalent infractions by others on LNC).
Neither Yahoo web search nor Google web or blog search can track down the source of this alleged quote that anybody on LNC “wishes to ‘re-brand the Libertarian Party [as] the real conservative party now’”.
This would not be the first time that deliberate falsehoods have been spammed out to LP members over Rob Power’s signature. See my comments at http://thirdpartywatch.com/2008/05/16/open-letter-lp-platform-minority-report/ for details.
