Wanderings

Michael Ostrolenk “Starting this year, Americans will have to get government approval to travel by air. As Privacy Journal revealed last fall, henceforth “Permission Now Needed to Travel Within U.S.” Getting a reservation and checking-in for air travel will soon require Transportation Security Administration authorization.”

Robert Nozick quoted on American Thinker “I like to think that intellectual honesty demands that, at least occasionally, we go out of our way to confront strong arguments opposed to our views.  How else are we to protect ourselves from continuing error?”

Barack Obama quoted by Rockwell “They do it all the time. If you think about it, UPS and Fed-Ex are doing just fine. It’s the Post Office that’s always having problems…. there is nothing inevitable about this somehow destroying the private marketplace. As long as it is not set up where the government is being subsidized by the taxpayers so that even if they are providing a good deal, we keep having to pony up more and more money.”

BrianR “Let’s look at this another way: I have a right to own a Porsche. I can’t afford a Porsche. How do I get the government to buy a Porsche for me?”

GunnyG “RINO/Bluebloods want to go along with change if it suits their purpose, i.e., lining their pockets, staying in power, and rolling over for the libs as necessary.”

Joseph Ashby “It is not working because of two basic truths. First, government does not have money that it first has not taken away from the people, so if the government spends more, the people necessarily spend less. Second, government (which does not earn the money it spends) will never spend as wisely as individuals who have earned the money themselves.”

ValiantForTruth “If we as Christians do not speak out as authoritarian governments grow from within or come from outside, eventually we or our children will be the enemy of society and the state. No truly authoritarian government can tolerate those who have a real absolute by which to judge its arbitrary absolutes and who speak out and act upon that absolute.”

Rosslyn Smith “The entire Republican establishment has lost a large section of the public for some time now.  The elected officials did it by refusing to limit spending.  The pundit class has done it by has largely showing themselves to be both obsessed with style over substance and forever ceding the shape of the debate to the Democrats and the mainstream media.”
