- From The Editor
What a time it is. There are so many local, state and national issues and events that I, and probably you too, are reeling from it all.
First though, I would like to make you aware that New Hampshire
LSOCK has been promoting Jury Right’s for many years now, passing out Fully Informed Jury Association (FIJA, go to fija.org) and other literature at the Sedgwick County Courthouse around Jury Rights Day (September 5) and other days through the year as well.
Locally, the fluoride forces are at it again. It looks like Wichita Wichita was the largest city in the US
I submitted a similar letter a few years ago when the issue was being discussed. That letter was never published. It seems to me that these are very valid points to consider when claims are made regarding fluoride’s supposed benefits but fluoride’s proponents do not seem to want to even acknowledge them.
The primaries today (Tuesday, August 7) for the R and D nominations for county and state offices are not open to registered Libertarians but will certainly affect us along with all other Kansans.
In a strange turn of events we are seeing the so-called moderate/traditional Republicans being attacked by the conservative wing of the Kansas GOP, including Governor Brownback, so that the conservatives can take over the State Senate, thus giving total control of state government to the conservative republicans.
Even stranger, this possibility has spawned a movement among Democrats to change their registrations to Republican so they can vote for the moderate Republicans in the Republican primary. Even life-long Democrat Vern Miller, former Sedgwick County Sheriff, Kansas Attorney General and candidate for Governor, changed his registration to Republican for this primary.
The Presidential race has gone completely crazy as well. The talking heads from the left are making claims that since Romney has only released two years of his tax returns,he must be hiding paying low or no taxes for many of the years he has not released tax forms for. They add that he may have Swiss bank accounts that he hid, which is a felony, and may have used an amnesty program to avoid criminal penalties.
Senate Majority Leader Henry Reid and other congressional democrats have joined in this mud-fest along with the liberal media talking heads. All this without a shred of proof. However, when Members of Congress are polled regarding releasing their own tax returns, they almost universally state that they will not.
The Republican Party is still trying to disenfranchise supporters of Dr. Ron Paul and preventing them from attending the Republican nominating convention later this month. In the meantime Romney continues to make gaffs at nearly every stop.
Gary Johnson, former Governor of New Mexico and the LP candidate for President is getting more interest from both voters and the media than any LP Presidential nominee in LP history. The Wichita Eagle even ran a recent article on Governor Johnson that was very positive.
Governor Johnson has been invited to speak at the Rally for Dr. Ron Paul that will take place in Tampa

1. State Fair Volunteers Needed Now
Once again, it is time to prepare for the Kansas State Fair . We need volunteers to staff the LPKS Outreach Booth, aka the Politically Homeless Booth, this coming September.
Our booth must have at least one (preferably two or more) person(s) manning the booth from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM every day from September 7 through the 16.
That is Friday the 7th to Sunday the 16th.
I will be doing the scheduling for this event again this year. The day is split into morning (9 AM to 3 PM) and evening (3 PM to 9 PM) shifts but I can schedule you for anytime through the day that you may have available to volunteer.
The LPKS does outreach booths at a variety of festivals around the state but the Kansas State Fair allows us to contact a wide cross section of Kansans from all over the entire state at this one event.
If you want to assist us please contact me, Steven Rosile, by replying to this email or sarasile@att.net , or calling me at 316 618-1339.
