| 0:04.0 | Prepare to set fire to the index card of allowable opinion. |
| 0:08.8 | Your daily dose of liberty education starts here, the Tom Woods Show. |
| 0:14.6 | Hey, everybody, Tom Woods here. |
| 0:16.9 | Talking today about non-interventionism, and in particular because we have another GOP primary going on, |
| 0:24.5 | suppose we have primary in both parties, but it's most relevant to the GOP one, |
| 0:28.6 | naturally you get this misunderstanding that anybody who wants to avoid foreign wars must be some kind of pink-o-comi. |
