Republican Liberty Caucus

Web Page: http://www.rlc.org/
Infamous throughout the libertarian movement in the 1980s and
early 1990s for their founders' repeated slanderous attacks on
Libertarian Party candidates, this group has matured somewhat
and appears to have settled down to the serious (even if likely
futile) business of trying to persuade Republicans to embrace
the ideas of Liberty. Although annoying when they confuse
conservative ideas with libertarian ones, they are nonetheless
interesting. Web site was down for a long time and recently
restored.
