Libertarians restate their open borders position, change their Webpage on immigration – MDJ “Around Town” column reports my challenge to Bobb Barr and the Libertarian open immigration philosophy….no response from Barr
From today’s Marietta Daily Journal “Around Town” column
COBB COUNTY ACTIVIST and frequent MDJ More Opinions page contributor D.A. King is challenging former GOP Congressman and potential Libertarian Party presidential nominee Bob Barr to debate. King, who has gained a national reputation on immigration matters, disagrees with Barr’s position that illegals now living here should be legalized, and the Libertarian Party position that King describes as “open borders.”

The Libertarian Party has totally re-done their Webpage on immigration in the last week or so ( I challenged Barr on April 8, 2008) . They seem to have modified and changed their position on “open immigration” as previously stated. We are working on getting the “Way-back machine” internet tool to recover the old page…this cracks me up. (Added 2:15: HERE IT IS)
From the current page on “immigration” ( here) “Economic freedom demands the unrestricted movement of human as well as financial capital across national borders”. …. “Repeal all immigration quotas“. ( Umm…its open borders)
