A Belief In Moral Absolutes Should Always

Government Is The Agent Of Those Who Are Too Refined To Do Their Own Mugging.

There Can Be No Such Thing As "limited Government," Because There Is No Way To Control An Entity That In Principle Enjoys A Monopoly Of Power.

De-christianizing America Has Been High On The Progressive Agenda, And, Thanks To The Government (especially The Federal Courts), It Has Been A Great Success. Nor Can We Overlook The Contribution Of The Entertainment Industry, Which Now Determines What Passes For 'culture.' The Main Practical Vehicle Of De-christianization Has Been The Sexual Revolution. A Few Radicals Have Called For The Abolition Of The Family, But Most Liberals Have Been More Discreet, Avoiding Hostile Rhetoric While Quietly But Constantly Pursuing Policies That Result In Lower Birthrates And Fatherless Children.

It Would Be A Healthy Exercise For Every Politician To Look In The Mirror Every Morning And Remind Himself That He Holds Office Only Because, In A Two-man Race Against Another Mediocrity, A Modest Majority Of Those Half-informed People Who Imagined That Their Votes Mattered Reckoned That He Was The Lesser Evil. And They Weren't Too Sure About That.

The Prospect Of A Government That Treats All Its Citizens As Criminal Suspects Is More Terrifying Than Any Terrorist. And Even More Frightening Is A Citizenry That Can Accept The Surrender Of Its Freedoms As The Price Of "freedom".
