Liberty Pledge Newsletter
LIBERTY PLEDGE NEWSLETTER The Liberty Pledge Newsletter is a monthly publication for the contributors in the National Libertarian Party's Liberty Pledge Program and the Torch Club. It is also distributed to current National Committee Members and State Party Chairs in appreciation of their involvement and to serve them as a regular update on Libertarian activities at Headquarters and in the news. Clippings and other stories of interest are appreciated. Libertarian Party National Headquarters • 301 W. 21st St. • Houston, Texas 77008 • 713/880-1776 Want to raise your Pledge? Adjust it? Call us at 1-800-682-1776. JUNE Dear Supporters of Liberty, 1986 Liberty Pledge News is an internal publication, your "insider's" line to what's in the press concerning your party. Some of this material is not for the faint of heart, but those of you who receive it are the core - the "inner circle", so to speak - of the LP, and if you don't know what's going on, who does? Last month's issue drew a little negative feedback, so I'm asking you: Do you think major contributors, National Committee members, and State Chairs need to know what Libertarians are doing around the country, and what kind of coverage they are getting? Where would you get the news, if not here? I want to know what you think; feel free to write and share with me your feelings on this. It looks like the lawsuits are piling up around the country as the State LP's are taking the ballot access laws to the courts. -
Only in America
Only in America MICHAEL BISHOP On Wings of Song, by Thomas M. Disch. Bantam Books, 359 pp., $2.25. AS I WRITE (LATE DECEM- ber), our nation's President- elect (the inspiration in the late 1960s for both an irreverent California poetry magazine and a dazzingly disorienting story by English writer J. G. Ballard) must wait less than a month before appointing his wife Sec- retary of Interior Decoration at the White House, while bril- liant ex-Beatle and brutally X'd-out human being John Lennon (the Egg Man whose quirky imagination hatched hundreds of hummable mel- odies and a dozen or so ideal- istic crusades) has now had in- timate communion with non- existence for exactly sixteen days. What a strange, strange juxtaposition, the impending inauguration and this latest shocking death. Only in America. In On Wings of Song, his most successful novel to date, Thomas M. Disch has envision- ed a day-after-tomorrow Amer- ica in which the election of Ronald Reagan and the murder of John Lennon have credibly grotesque analogues. Indeed, I would argue that Disch's mor- dant imaginings of our short- range future (a period appar- ently encompassing about fif- ulations of its protagonist—in selves out of their prisons of the entire social fabric of Iowa teen years on either side of this case, a young man from flesh through song.

Readers are welcome to enter and browse to their content. It is regretted that the only way open to author or publisher to designate this book as private property is through the government copyright office. Essentially, the same chore could be performed by any good insurance firm or some other free market establishment. Since none such is in existence, and since it is deemed advisable to designate this book as private property, no choice exists for author or publisher. The book must be copyrighted, or it must be placed in that twilight realm where ownership is in doubt. Perhaps in Some future and more enlig-htened time authors and publishers may find a way to designate their efforts as private property without invoking the taxing powers of the government and without calling upon the police powers to hold the world at bay with the threat of violence.

The Three “Furies” of Libertarianism: Rose Wilder Lane, Isabel Paterson, and Ayn Rand
The Three “Furies” of Libertarianism: Rose Wilder Lane, Isabel Paterson, and Ayn Rand Jennifer Burns Downloaded from “They make all of us male writers look like Confederate money,” wrote the curmud- geonly cultural critic Albert Jay Nock in 1943. According to Congressman Howard Buf- fett, they “have talent that surpasses that of almost any mere male that I know in the country.” Reflecting on the rise of the Right over the course of the twentieth century, the http://jah.oxfordjournals.org/ journalist John Chamberlain noted, “If it had been left to pusillanimous males probably nothing much would have happened.” To William F. Buckley Jr., they were the “three furies” of libertarianism: the children’s author and magazine writer Rose Wilder Lane, the book critic Isabel Paterson, and the best-selling novelist Ayn Rand. Popular writers who are not typically remembered as significant intellectuals, Lane, Paterson, and Rand nonetheless exerted, according to their contemporaries, a powerful influence on the ideo- 1 logical development of the American Right. at Stanford University on December 14, 2015 But what exactly was this influence, and how should historians make sense of the striking presence of three women, bound by similar life experiences and tenuous bonds of friendship, at the core of modern antistatism? It seems more than coincidence to find three women at this pivotal moment, yet Lane, Paterson, and Rand resist easy analysis on the grounds of gender. They did not claim their womanhood as a source of particu- lar wisdom and did not identify with women as a group. The triumphant self that ran through their fiction could manifest itself in both male and female guise.
