Senate 2006
I got back from the 2006 California Libertarian Party convention today. The convention was held aboard a cruise ship this year, which made it very pleasant journey.
It was also an illuminating process. We elected new committee members for the Executive Committee and the Judicial Committee. We had a lengthy debate over two contentious resolutions, one opposing the death penalty and one opposing the war in Iraq. The party members are almost evenly split on these two issues.
Personally, I believe the time has come for us to exit Iraq. Our invasion was predicated on an imminent threat to our national security. I believe that with the removal of Hussein, any credible threat has been eliminated. We should therefore transfer control to the newly elected Iraqi government.
