H.L. Mencken was a true genius.
Politics, under democracy resolves itself into impossible alternatives. Whatever the label on the parties, or the war cries issuing from the demagogues who lead them, the practical choice is between the plutocracy on the one side and a rabble of preposterous impossibilists on the other. Democracy needs beyond everything is a party of liberty.Now, we'll see if McCain-Palin can forge a party of liberty that can convince the populace of the need for blood, tears, and sweat in achieving the blessings of liberty.

Please tell me you're not so naive that you really believe things will change with Palin playing second fiddle to political oppurtunist and good old boy John McCain? Rail against Obambi all you wish, but don't for a minute think with McCain we won't get more of the same "compassionate conservative" crap we've had for the last eight years.

lol you must be joking. McCain is only marginally better than Obama when it comes to liberty.
