When the goal of political action is no longer the defense of liberty, no word other than demagoguery can describe the despicable nature of politics. Ron Paul
National security trumps a lot. It can trampke civil rights. It can denude personal liberties. But it cannot and never will triumph over political gamesmanship. - Kelly Paul David Baldacci
The Statue of Liberty, that frequently malevolent bitch, has an enormous tumor in her gut that has spread to her brain and eyes. With regard to the Native Americans she has Alzheimer's or mad cow disease and can't remember her past, and her blind eyes can't see the terrifying plight of most of the Indian tribes. Meanwhile she blows China and stomps Cuba to death, choosing to forget the Native cultures she has already destroyed. Jim Harrison
The fact is that the average man's love of liberty is nine-tenths imaginary, exactly like his love of sense, justice and truth. H. L. Mencken
Benjamin Franklin quote: "Security without liberty is called prison."
Security without liberty is called prison. Benjamin Franklin
