A blog from right where we live. It focuses on lots of local stuff as well as rants about national and international fare. Haven't read through too much of it, yet, but they seem to be pretty much in touch with the goings-on in Delaware County PA. Well worth a look.
Great resource!
I have added a Calendar and "Today in Political History" page for your enjoyment and enlightenment. There are many "Today in History" resources on the internet. What is different about mine is that it is: 1) limited to Politics and 2) it has links from the items displayed! Please give it a try. But be patient -- it is still under construction. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Liberty Impact was founded upon the belief that individual freedom is the fundamental value that must underline all social relations, economic exchanges and the political system. We believe that voluntary co-operation between individuals in a free market is always preferable to coercion exerted by the State. Thus we reject the main political development of the twentieth century, that is, the sustained growth in the size of the State and the range of its interventions in the private lives of citizens.
Ken Evans is a friend and fellow Libertarian Toastmaster.

Creative Commons offers an answer to some of the problems of use of copyrighted works by offering a way to pre-approve certain uses of copyrighted material. This is potentially an antidote to many of the headaches that recent copyright legislation has caused for many in the creative community, while still protecting the rights of creative people from having their works stolen wholesale. Nice Flash overview of the problem and the process here also.

James Glaser is an ex-Marine who fought in Vietnam and dispenses first-hand knowledge of what war is really like. He writes four political columns per week.
