this one (today, at least) is scary, if assessing (our) freedom as the root of the will and moral courage....

"No arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women.
- Ronald Reagan

The Post Office put a note in my PO Box the day they received the Ronald Reagan sheet stamps.
I hadn't realized that everyone knows that Ronald Reagan is my Hero.

Should be, and they are going pretty fast.
Postmaster said that the Ronald Reagan stamps were their most popular until the price increase and then the Purple Heart stamps took the lead, we were discussing that when the guy behind me mentioned that he had read that USPS were thinking about stamps with no denomination and thought that the Reagan stamp would be perfect, everyone would know it was "First Class"

"We Americans are slow to anger. We always seek peaceful avenues before resorting to the use of force -- and we did. We tried quiet diplomacy, public condemnation, economic sanctions, and demonstrations of military force. None succeeded. Despite our repeated warnings, Qadhafi continued his reckless policy of intimidation, his relentless pursuit of terror. He counted on America to be passive. He counted wrong. I warned that there should be no place on Earth where terrorists can rest and train and practice their deadly skills. I meant it. I said that we would act with others, if possible, and alone if necessary to ensure that terrorists have no sanctuary anywhere. Tonight, we have."

-President Ronald Reagan

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
Ronald Reagan

read that USPS were thinking about stamps with no denomination
I certainly advocate that - what after all is the justification for selling first class postage and then demanding more money for first class postage just because the stamp was not used immediately??? It is dishonorable, actually. The more so when you consider that inflation is the fault of the very government which runs the post office.
