Liberalism faltered when it turned out it could not cope with truth. D. Moynihan

Some in my party threaten to send a message that they don't know a just war when they see it, and more broadly that they're not prepared to use our military strength to protect our security and the cause of freedom. Joe Lieberman

Somehow liberals have been unable to acquire from life what conservatives seem to be endowed with at birth: namely, a healthy skepticism of the powers of government agencies to do good. Daniel Moynihan


When we are planning for posterity, we ought to remember that virtue is not hereditary. T. Paine

True. But there was a consortium of countries that funded it, I believe. Not sure if it was through private donations or not though...

I do what I can.

My cheap T-Type is going to turn into an El Camino swap project... I killed the thrust bearing and since the car is rusty I figure the El Camino route will be cooler. Hope to have it done for Bowling Green next year.

Sorry to hear about the engine in the T, the El Camino will be cool though!!! I might just go back to BG next year to check it out!
