I subscribe to The Patriot Post, a concise, informative and entertaining analysis of the week’s most important news, policy and opinion delivered to my e-mail inbox at no charge. If you want to subscribe go to http://patriotpost.us/subscribe.php It’s the internet’s leading advocate (in my opinion) of individual liberty, the restoration of constitutional limits on government and the judiciary, and the promotion of free enterprise, national defense and traditional American values. These are good guys.
ps, I gave in and had to make another post. Changes could be coming soon though.
Reagan Wisdom
The more I learn about Obama’s economic recovery plan, the more I am bothered. The PatriotPost has a great article today comparing Ronald Reagan to Obama. Here is a clip from Reagan’s inaugural address in 1981:
“The economic ills we suffer … will not go away in days, weeks, or months, but they will go away. They will go away because we, as Americans, have the capacity now, as we have had in the past, to do whatever needs to be done to preserve this last and greatest bastion of freedom. In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. … Our government has no power except that granted it by the people. It is time to check and reverse the growth of government, which shows signs of having grown beyond the consent of the governed. It is my intention to curb the size and influence of the federal establishment and to demand recognition of the distinction between the powers granted to the federal government and those reserved to the states or to the people. All of us need to be reminded that the federal government did not create the states; the states created the federal government.”
He says government is the problem, and I agree. This article contains a ton of good information, but I will stop with this. Read if for yourself. Who can restore Americans’ confidence today? Who knows, maybe Pres. Obama can, but I won’t put too much stock in that.
