Political Commentary and Information
There is a lot of information available on these sites. Some of it you may agree with, some you may not. In any event, explore these sites; don't
just read the first page. Peruse the links. Drill down several levels. Many contain good and interesting stuff several layers down. A good example is
Leon Felkin's Home Page. I was tempted to link several different parts of his site here, and had to fight the temptation. After all, part of self-sufficiency
and a belief in smaller government is trusting people to find things themselves without spoon-feeding and micro-management. My link to his site points you in the right direction;
it is up to you to mine for gold...
