F is for Fall & Fiscal Responsibility - Jeramy Kitchen to speak at LPTravis 10/9

[AustinLiberator]

Autumn is here...allegedly.

September Meeting w/ Special Guests Dan Behrman, Whitney Bilyeu.

LPTravis hosted Scott Horton, former Presidential Candidate Dan Behrman, and LPTexas Chair Whitney Bilyeu for the September 11 regular meeting. Mr. Horton provided a in-depth analysis and critique of US international interventionism, and signed books for a number of us.  Dan "Taxation is Theft" Behrman brought some good perspective and a bottle of his Blood of Tyrants wine, which had been derived from immigrated across state line grapes, transported through Mexico and into the US without declaration or license, and was sold to David Roberson without either of them having TABC certification. Sic semper Tyrannus!
