The Conservative Zappa

Frank Zappa strongly influenced my views around liberty and "conservatism".

Here is a terrific piece with him defending the conservativism from the religious right on Crossfire in 1986.

Here it is 20 years later and we've largely lost this battle. The religious advocate is spouting the same big government, anti-free market solutions which make the positions of the far left equally unworkable.

Watch it all, it's worth your time (plus it has a young Robert Novak)
