Vid: Welch, Gillespie Talk Foreign Policy with Daily Caller!

|

 

The Daily Caller's Jamie Weinstein recently interviewed Matt Welch and me about our new book, The Declaration of Independents: How Libertarian Politics Can Fix What's Wrong With America (buy it now!).

In this segment, Weinstein asks us what a libertarian foreign policy would look like. Here's part of how Matt Welch responds:

"What Obama did with Libya was incredible. He said I am going to go to war because there might be a massacre in this city. It wasn't even because there is a genocide happening now, there might be a massacre in this one city. He didn't go to Congress with it. That lowers the bar even from [George W.] Bush, whose bar was helpfully lowered by Bill Clinton in Kosovo."
