Bob Confer COMMENTARY ON THE ISSUES THAT MATTER A common sense perspective about our economy, our government, and the world we live in

About Bob Confer's commentaries: Since July of 2005 I have written a weekly opinion column for the four newspapers that make up the Greater Niagara Newspapers in Niagara & Orleans counties in Western New York. These columns look at issues in government and economics (local, state, national, and international) with a common sense approach, focusing on small government and personal & economic liberty (and responsibility!). You can read all of my columns on this website. In a similar vein, since July of 2009 I have written columns for the online and print versions of the New American, the official magazine of the John Birch Society. These columns, national and international in scale, follow the same approach I take with my newspaper columns and fit nicely with the Society's mission of "Less Government, More Responsibility, and — With God's Help — a Better World." You can read these columns on this website or at http://thenewamerican.com
