Quote for the Day I

"I’m generally not against what Bush is doing in principle, but I am totally opposed to the way he has gone about it. As I’ve said a thousand times before, think long term people. You might be one of the Kool Aid drinkers who thinks that George W. Bush has the light of God shooting out of his asshole, but what is going to happen the next time a liberal Democrat gets elected? What are you going to say when President Hillary decides to spy on the American people, and uses Bush as a precedent? I imagine all of these self-styled ‘conservatives’ are suddenly going to remember that old Constitution thing from way back.

Freedom and liberty are, at least in my mind, not negotiable, no matter which party is in power. The right in this country is split. On the one hand there are people like me who still give a shit about the concepts of limited government and individual liberty, and then there’s the other side, for whom making sure queers can’t marry and getting Adam and Eve into science class ranks a close second to blindly supporting anything a president does, provided he has an R after his name," – blogger Lee at Right-Thinking from the Left Coast.
