Democratic (socialist/fascist) Chairman Paul E. Trujillo, of the Valencia County Board of Commissioners, (Federal enclave of) New Mexico, changes his party affiliation to Libertarian (constitutionalist).  “Libertarians believe that you have the right to live your life as you wish, without the government interfering, as long as you don’t violate the rights of others.”

       While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are in Afghanistan, Djibouti, Iraq, the Philippines and west Africa defending “all freedom-loving people everywhere in the world,” Democratic (socialist/fascist) CONgressman Patrick J. Kennedy, II, of the rhode island and providence plantations, crashes his Ford Mustang, into a barrier, at the Capitol Building, in the District of Columbia.  Kennedy was “Driving Under the Influence” of Phenegan and Ambien, prescription drugs for gastroenteritis and a sleep aid, respectively.  Both drugs cause drowsiness; but Kennedy was not charged.
