He [Kellerman] is also willing to abrogate his own right to protect himself, his family, and his home in exchange for the government to have the right to protect people from themselves.

Chip Hanlon over at Greenfaucet (www.greenfaucet.com) gave us a call after reading Johnny Appleseed’s Red County post titled, Obama Watch: Barack on Business. He was impressed by the quality of the post and has agreed to keep an eye out for Red County posts that intersect issues of business and politics. I sat down with [...]

H/T: www.reason.tv FROM REASON.TV: To hear the Lou Dobbses and Bill O’Reillys of the world–not to mention politicians ranging from Ron Paul to Hillary Clinton–the middle class of America (however you define that term) has never had it so tough.
