They’re everywhere, lurking around just waiting to be offended. They love to have their delicate sensibilities insulted. Their feelings are tender. They buy a house next to an airport and then complain about the noise. They bond with other whiners to convince the city politicians it is government’s job to do something for them.

Story: Bill Sutton

Americans must make a tough decision this year. Each of you must decide if you favor freedom or additional circumscription, then vote accordingly. Freedom means less government and less bureaucratic intrusion on private business and lives. Freedom means personal responsibility. Freedom means you must exercise common sense. A big government means additional constraints on your life with more regulations and restrictions. You will have two choices, neither of which is really clear.
