Freedom Isn't Free
A Hollywood Republican ^ | 3/15/2011 | Ira Schwartz

Freedom, when stoked, has a tendency to spread like wild fire, consuming everything in its path. It’s a hunger you can’t satisfy, a desire that gnaws at your very sole forcing you to give up everything you have, even your life, to obtain it and keep it.

John F. Kennedy once said,

“In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility – I welcome it.”

Something tells me JFK is not really popular with today's Liberals. Defending freedom takes them too far way from their comfort zone. Besides freedom to them, means taking legal tender away from people that have rightfully earned it.
