Quote of the day–Ben Franklin

God grant that not only the love of liberty but a thorough knowledge of the rights of man may pervade all the nations of the earth, so that a philosopher may set his foot anywhere on its surface and say: This is my country.


Ben Franklin
[Unfortunately just the opposite has happened. Anywhere I may set my foot on this planet is oppressed and there is no place that I can say I want to live with this system of government. Now that Cheerios are being considered a drug (and here) will the fields in which we raise the oats for them be treated like fields of opium poppies?–Joe]

  1. I wonder if the First Amendment crowd is getting even a glimmer of what is to come with elements of FedGov lining up to destroy AM radio (“diversity ownership” Code word to get rid of talk radio), filter the web a la China (and other nations), etc…

    Question: “Will the second be called upon to defend the first – in time?”

    This group of thugs is looking thuglier and thuglier.
