I found out, via Facebook messages, that lots of people still don't know about "Freedom Watch" - Judge Napolitan's one-hour show each Wednesday at 2pm EST. Lew Rockwell links each and every episode on the blog, and though the show is only about a month old, this week's show is the best yet. The only complaint I have is that the show is not on every day.

First, the interview with Alex Jones is terrific - can anyone talk faster than Alex and not skip a beat? Right after the Alex Jones interview (end of Part I and the beginning of Part II) there is a fantastic lesson in freedom from The Judge that you must see. What a passionate and terrific delivery. Also note where Judge Napolitano talks about his upcoming trip to Missouri to speak for the Campaign for Liberty. He says he has demanded that the car that comes to pick him up from the airport have a Ron Paul bumper sticker. (He is referring to the MIAC Report that was blogged here. Also see Anthony Gregory on this.)

Even Cody Willard - a FOX analyst - is terrific. He does, however, make an error when he talks about the government interventions and ensuing chaos being "anarchy." He keeps stressing that it's "anarchy in its premise," when indeed, it is not anarchy. His definitions are incorrect. The series of interventions in the financial system are an example of an unconstitutional, totalitarian government handing down arbitrary decrees in order to grab arbitrary powers and set precedents for future power grabs.

In addition, the discussions of 'secession' and 'contract' on this show are very compelling and rather rigorous. Note that Mark Skousen thinks big government interventions can be justified on the basis of cost-benefit analysis. Of course, that leads to complete totalitarianism, a massive interventionist state, and the lack of property rights and natural rights. Mark Skousen's defense of a unified nation (by force) and government tinkering is almost comical, especially considering the radical theme of the show.
