So if you celebrate one of his nostrums, perhaps you need to celebrate all?

Common sense dictates otherwise, try it sometime. No one is correct 100% of the time, are they? Blackbird.

Absolutely not. But common sense also says Davy Crockett was much further from so-called "Libertarian" ideas than this post would have people believe. He also supported military action, often, both against Indians and against the Mexican army.

I love Davy Crockett---he gets a lot of ink in my book, "A Patriot's History of the United States" http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1595230017/qid=1092168718/sr=1-5/ref=sr_1_5/002-0543492-4011203?v=glance&s=books but he was a staunch Whig.
