From highroad:
"Necessity is the plea for every infringment of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants, it is the creed of slaves." -- William Pitt, 1783
and:
"The two major political parties can be summed up this way: There are two parties, one is the Stupid Party and the other is the Evil Party. Occasionally these two parties create legislation that is both stupid and evil. This is called bi-partisianship." -- Andrew Grooms

From Quotes of the Day:

"It's the opinion of some that crops could be grown on the moon. Which raises the fear that it may not be long before we're paying somebody not to." -- Franklin P. Jones

Charley Reese - No Honor, No Brains - Mr. Reese chimes in on Bushnev's comments on the Trent Lott thing.

If you're a Palestinian living in occupied territory, if your children have been killed, your house blown up and your other human rights violated, then you have a right to complain. If you are an American black and you hear a politician make a stupid statement, I'm sorry, but I have no interest in listening to you whine about it. If that's the worse thing that ever happens to you, fall on your knees and give thanks to God. In the meantime, remember that freedom of speech means the right to say stupid or even offensive things, and some black leaders have certainly taken advantage of that.

BBC News - New Year gun amnesty planned - the Brits still haven't figured it out. Their earlier restrictions on firearms ownership have caused an explosion in armed crime. So what do they do? Work harder at getting more victims to disarm themselves. Sheesh.
