I have been a conservative since as a teenager I was awakened from my slumber listening to Ronald Reagan’s “A Time for Choosing Speech” ... I went on to read William F. Buckley, Hayek, Human Events, National Review et al. Against the radical left I encountered in the late 1960’s, a like minded friend and I helped to found Young Americans for Freedom in Pittsburgh, PA. I have been a staunch constitutional conservative ever since. I love Free Republic and have enjoyed reading the posts and responses for over 10 years. A liberal friend sent me the article I posted earlier today. I had planned to engage in the interactions but something came up unexpectedly at work right after I posted and I had to get to there much earlier than planned.
Thanks everyone for the insights. Onward!
