--ESR's Conservative Site of the Day-->
Each weekday ESR's sister web site spotlights the best in digital
conservatism. If you're jonesing for a new conservative site to visit, we
got it! Check it out at http://www.enterstageright.com/site
Enter Stage Right is a conservative journal with an unorthodox perspective.
We don't mix religion and politics and we don't believe in freedom and
individualism as half- hearted principles. We are opposed to government
interference in our private lives and the economy. ESR promotes
laissez-faire capitalism. The magazine itself does not support any
particular political party, and then is therefore free to support *anyone*
who shares our philosophy.
We're a little weekly non-profit journal and we hope you visit us. We don't
mind submissions if you're interested in writing for us.
