Liberty

Parent to Science and Industry according to a 1.15 million dollar penny from 1792.

Metrocon Jay Nordlinger at Mr. Buckley's Fortnightly's website: "In this Age of Obama, we’ve been chewing over some fundamental questions: a classical-liberal society, a more social-democratic society. One of the things we classical liberals have been saying is: All the innovation that America has been responsible for? It will dry up, if we allow the government to grow too big, too domineering, and too confiscatory."  Then he mentioned that penny.


And low and behold there are other things going about lately with regard to the value of Liberty and of the dangers of the Blue Social Model we struggle under, and grows more burdensome under the current administration.  (and probably the next one, and the next, but that's another story.)

At least the State Department declared the War on Terror 'over.'   Did we win or lose?
