With the Fourth of July fervor fast approaching, we thought a little sobriety is necessary.  Please be careful for what it is you are waving that flag whose origins are in liberty, not global intervention and the at home police state such folly requires.

“The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naïve and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.”

H.L. Mencken
