  Occasionally I note that conservatives are ineffective defenders of liberty. The primary reason is that they confuse America with the government. The government is not America. As our Founding Fathers understood, government is our enemy. They attempted to restrain our enemy with the Constitution and the separation of its powers.

When the facts don’t fit their narrative, the media abandons the facts, not the narrative. Virtually every piece of information you get through the media has been massaged, shaped, curated, and manipulated before it reaches …

  People love the digital revolution.  It allows them to work from home and avoid stressful commutes and office politics.  The young love their cell phones that connect them to the world.
