Richard Winger is 83.000 Today

Posted on by August 27, 2026

On the August 27 before D-Day, the irreplaceable Richard Winger was born. As I said when I introduced him for his induction into the Libertarian Party Hall of Liberty in 2014, if I ever find a Do Not Resuscitate order for him, I am going to rip it up. When a person passes, other people say they don’t know how they’ll get along without him or her. At this man’s future wake, it will be the God’s Honest Truth. Happy Birthday, Richard. Many, and I do mean many, Happy Returns!

  17. Best wishes for a Happy Birthday, Richard, and a great new year! Your interest in ballot access and expertise in the subject are much appreciated.

  19. Is it correct that in most of the world 83.000 means 83 thousand, and that the US is unusual in typically using commas rather than periods to separate increments of a thousand?

  21. Q, yes, but the universe is only around six thousand years old, so there’s no way for Mr. Winger to be 83 thousand years old. Therefore, he must only be 83 today, as the US American commentaters inferred.

    Happy 83rd, Mr. Winger, and Centanni!

  24. John Taylor Bowles, aka Bogdaddyluvsu , the former candidate of the American Nazi Party, is thanking a Jew and wishing him a happy birthday. Bowles grandfather who fell from the guard tower at Auschwitz would be disappointed in him.

  26. A,

    The universe is billions of years old, so it’s possible for Richard Winger to be 83.000 years old. Milliard’anni!

  30. Happy birthday to us. My birthday wish is to get rid of AZ and the other spambots here.

  32. Bill Shining Red Path:

    “if I ever find a Do Not Resuscitate order for him, I am going to rip it up.”

    Don’t DNR (Do not resuscitate; also Democrats ‘N’ Republicans) orders typically come into play only when someone is in a vegetative state or otherwise with little or no chance of productive recovery or life going forward?

    As far as I know, Mr. Winger has no such condition, isn’t anywhere close to those kinds of decisions, and I share the hope that he won’t have to make them for many years, or better yet decades.

  33. Have a great birthday, Rich. You’re a national treasure…and a wonderful human being. It’s been a pleasure knowing you all these years. (heart emoji)
