"Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit."

"Where government advances – and it advances relentlessly – freedom is imperiled; community impoverished; religion marginalized and civilization itself jeopardized. ... When did government cease to be a necessary evil and become a goody bag to solve our private problems?"

I'd say Judge Brown gets it.

Thanks for the ping. The rats are probably more scared of Judge Brown than they are scared of GW.

She not only "gets it", she knocked the ball out of the park.

Those two paragraphs are nothing short of brilliant.

Your excerpt of Brown's words show her to be a common sense, liberty defending judge. But seven of those words: our ability to control our own destiny are at the crux of the liberals' attempts to stop conservative judges from being seated. They will do everything they can to be the ones who pull the "destiny" strings.

Thanks for the ping, Jeff. A great article.
