Stay free

This guy is good. His is a moderate voice who intelligently looks at the world around him and gives his reasoned opinions. For example:

It is not Senators, Representatives, or the ever evasive Democratic Leadership, it is you, it is me, it is your teenager, it is your neighbor; it is our responsibility to keep freedom alive. Freedom is alive when we practice it. It is dead, not when someone legislaties it away, but when we simply stop practicing it.

He is spot on about this. If citizens insist on freedom, we all will have it. If we capitulate to government, we lose. And isn't it strange I even need to say such a thing about the US government which was built on freedom?

Tell me this. Are you afraid to write your government representatives? Particulary if they are Republicans and you disagree with them, do you fear they will no longer listen to you, at least, or you will be up for an IRS audit or they will start monitoring your IMs, email or phone calls?
