Greetings from Colorado

Heading back to Washington after a couple of days at the High Lonesome Ranch and a couple of days at the Steamboat Institute Freedom Conference. The High Lonesome Ranch is a great example of private conservation, with some of the nation's highest concentrations of black bears and mountain lions. The Steamboat Institute conference was a great gathering of free-market people. I spoke on (what a surprise) fiscal policy. The most amusing part of the conference was during Karl Rove's speech, when he remarked that "Dan Mitchell thinks I'm a dangerous liberal." I actually think he's an operational statist, but read this, this, and this and you be the judge.
