That government is best that governs least.

I certainly agree with that, except when it comes to our urban areas. Withdraw goverment from places like New York City, and they become Mogadishu pretty quickly.

I don't know whom I will support for President next year. Gingrich is my favorite, and I don't think he has much chance and I'm not sure he's running.

I'm also not convinced that Giuliani would govern the country the same way he ran NYC. That's either good or bad depending on how you look at it. It's impossible to argue that he didn't save the city by cracking down. It's also possible to argue that those tactics he used are unacceptable on a national basis. I'm not sure he'd disagree with that assessment.

What state and local authorities can do is quite different than what the federal government can do, and that's a good thing.

That's where we need guns,free enterprise the most.

If someone trys to mug, let them be shot.

Instead of all the free government handouts let those make their own living, with what ever they can think up.

If people want to "say" they "hate" anothers lifestyle, let them. Lets the chips fall where they may.

If someone needs a dime, let them ask, if the other doesn't want to give, let them say no.

If someone wants to have an old house on their own paid for property let them. If another wants it, let them buy it. If they don't want to sell, tell them to forget it.

I just help a guy who had been in county government for 16 years get into the state Senate. I was warned over and over by people in his county that he was a Big government guy. Sure enough, the first thing he did was author a huge big government bill allowing tax assessors to know too much a persons private business.

I am watching him close, and......?

In other words, blacks shouldn't have guns.
