WHO ARE THE REAL DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM? That's the question asked in this column a couple of weeks ago by my guest today at 1:00 Alexander Salter. Economist Alexander Salter disagrees. Salter is a professor of economics at Texas Tech University and a signatory of the Freedom Conservatism Statement of Principles. He is the author of more than 150 academic and popular articles and has authored four books. After the Democrats spent the week of their convention crowing about freedom, he explains what a lie that actually is. Read the column and join me at 1.
