[« Apropos the "Conservative Appeal"] [Better not whistle near us.... »]
01/26/2006: Thought for the Day:
Our government has kept us in a perpetual state of fear - kept us in a continuous stampede of patriotic fervor - with the cry of grave national emergency... Always there has been some terrible evil to gobble us up if we did not blindly rally behind it by furnishing the exorbitant sums demanded. Yet, in retrospect, these disasters seem never to have happened, seem never to have been quite real.
--Douglas MacArthur
Note: Today is the 126th anniversary of MacArthur's birth.
