This past week at the Grand Sierra Hotel in Reno, Nevada, the Liberty Political Action Conference (LPAC) was held.  It was a weekend full of great libertarians speaking about what's really going on in America today.

A conference like this is a treat for most libertarians.  As Matt Hawes, Vice President of Campaign for Liberty, put it in his introductory speech for Ron Paul's campaign manager John Tate,  "It's a time of rest and relaxation among like minded people."  And it truly felt that way.  It was a chance for liberty minded people to listen, learn, and speak about topics that matter to them; topics that may often cause uncomfortable opposition from friends, family, mainstream media, and the political class at large. 

There are a few liberty-minded politicians that have the courage and strength to speak about their beliefs, and fight for the rights of the American people everyday.  Whether they are in front of a cheering crowd of supporters, or amidst fellow politicians who often view them as a little off in the head for believing in the Constitution, they are strong and true in the what they believe, and I admire them for that.
