If you doubt

....that sanity will be brought back to our country by the private sector, take a look at reports that President Bush, the Fed, and Congress are working on a $145 billion package to "stimulate" the economy.

Yes, our political critters are telling us that the best way to get out of a recession brought on by poor financial decisions is to keep spending--to make another poor financial decision.

Thankfully, the WSJ reveals that 2/3 of the previous "insanity pill" recipients used their "prebate" to pay off debts or invest, and that 2/3 of people today plan to as well. Why is it that people who have at least a bit of financial sense keep sending the same old "vote-buying" crowd to Washington.

Once again, liberty starts at home.

Also, today marks the birthday of a great man who is said to have integrated his church in a day when that was not popular. His name; Robert E. Lee. Again, can we be as loving as a Confederate General when it comes to race?
