those good old ff's


The Iraq War is over and it sucked. Bush sucked, The Afghan War sucks big time. And yes, Obama sucks too.

But don't take my word for it. Heed the words of one of our revered and sacred founders:

Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few.
--James Madison
"Political Observations," 1795

I've noticed the good old FF's are practically worshiped by some of us. What they actually thought and said, not so much.
