Life without them would be so much less fun.... Post below lifted from Charlie Foxtrot
Since the definition of 'liberty' is 'freedom', if you sacrifice the former for the latter.....you end up right back where you started. Doh! Gotta love where the public schools are taking this country.... Maybe if he had paid more attention in American History class....if he was taught it that is...
Of course, as is pointed out by Mark Hemmingway (Hat Tip on the picture), the actual quote that this brainiac is trying to publicize is “Those who would sacrifice liberty for SECURITY deserve neither”, originally attributed to one of those arrogant dead white guys.
As Hemmingway's photo-essay demonstrates, attending a leftist rally can provide more humorous moments than most comedies coming out of Hollywood nowadays.

Does Australia' s manufacturing decline hold a lesson for the US economy?: Australian manufacturing is now about 11 per cent of GDP, the lowest ratio in the OECD. The US economy has experienced a similar trend. However, the economic commentariat says there is nothing to worry about. But what if they are wrong? This article presents an alternative view
The US dollar v. the Chinese yuan: there' s more than meets the eye: Monetary policy has been slowly tightening in the US while rapidly expanding in China. This means that the dollar could stabilize while the yuan continues to inflate. The US could then find itself in a position where the yuan starts falling against the dollar
Why Consumer-led recoveries can be bad for economies: If the malinvestments are severe and price margins remain compressed then interest rate cuts might prove ineffectual in the short-term in bringing about an economic recovery
Iraq as Qaeda bait: The left thinks Iraq is a killing field for Americans. Actually, it is a killing field for our enemies, at a very great but vitally important sacrifice. Even malicious liberals are encouraging the enemy to go to Iraq to die. Bush was absolutely right to tell them to ' bring it on'
Being a Democrat means never having to say you' re sorry: For decades the Democrat Party has been plagued with scandals involving everything from bribery, sex, fraud, manslaughter, voting fraud and God knows what else. Yet the denizens of the media have the gall to tell their readers that the GOP is the ' Party of Corruption'
Liberalism: a toxic philosophy: Liberalism has morphed from its classic definition of favoring personal liberty and small government into a philosophy where government becomes the omnipotent force in everyone's life
The left's hierarchy of hatred: Democrats should give careful consideration as to where organizations like MoveOn.org, and its chief supporter, the anti-American George Soros, are taking them, not to mention the other lefty billionaires who funded Moveon's foul ad accusing General Petraeus of treason

Palestinian Authority celebrates 9/11: "On the sixth anniversary of 9/11, the U.S.-backed Palestinian Authority continued its tradition of celebrating the attacks by publishing cartoons in its official daily that glorify Osama Bin Laden and mock American suffering."
Rent a congressman: "You bought Google at $100 and 3 years later is nearing $600 a share? Big deal. Microsoft has gone up 28-fold over the last 20 years? Yawn. You want to make the big bucks? Rent a congressman. Your return on your investment can be as high as $75 for every dollar invested. Just ask the good folks at PMA Group, a lobbying firm. They sank $1,333,074 into the campaigns last year of 3 Democratic members of the House defense appropriations subcommittee and walked away with $100.5 million in defense earmarks for PMA clients, Roll Call reported. That means for every buck they spent, their clients got back $75.39. In less than 1 year."
Greenspan clarifies Iraq war, oil link: "Clarifying a controversial comment in his new memoir, former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said he told the White House before the Iraq war that removing Saddam Hussein was "essential" to secure world oil supplies, according to an interview published on Monday. Greenspan, who wrote in his memoir that "the Iraq War is largely about oil," said in a Washington Post interview that while securing global oil supplies was "not the administration's motive," he had presented the White House before the 2003 invasion with the case for why removing the then-Iraqi leader was important for the global economy. "I was not saying that that's the administration's motive," Greenspan said in the interview conducted on Saturday. "I'm just saying that if somebody asked me, 'Are we fortunate in taking out Saddam?' I would say it was essential."

"Why should the German be interested in the liberation of the Jew, if the Jew is not interested in the liberation of the German?... We recognize in Judaism, therefore, a general anti-social element of the present time... In the final analysis, the emancipation of the Jews is the emancipation of mankind from Judaism.... Indeed, in North America, the practical domination of Judaism over the Christian world has achieved as its unambiguous and normal expression that the preaching of the Gospel itself and the Christian ministry have become articles of trade... Money is the jealous god of Israel, in face of which no other god may exist". Who said that? Hitler? No. It was Karl Marx. See also here and here and here.
The Big Lie of the late 20th century was that Nazism was Rightist. It was in fact typical of the Leftism of its day. It was only to the Right of Stalin's Communism. The very word "Nazi" is a German abbreviation for "National Socialist" (Nationalsozialistisch) and the full name of Hitler's political party (translated) was "The National Socialist German Workers' Party".
