THE MADCOUNCIL

Mad Council

This is the domestic-bureaucracy version of the State Dept. trying to subvert Bush policies overseas...

We have a conservative (at least nominally) majority in every elected realm of government, but the desks of the worker bees are still populated by Dems and Libs, and their work product will reflect this.

We need leaders more inclined to PURGE upon assumption of office. Bush was just too darn nice. :-)

A Reply, From A Century Ago

"Furthermore, it often turns out in practice that 'the State' is not even the known and accredited servants of the State, but, as has been well said, is only some obscure clerk, hidden in the recesses of a Government bureau, into whose power the chance has fallen for the moment to pull one of the stops which control the Government machine."

"We shall find that every effort to realize equality necessitates a sacrifice of liberty."

This is the great work of one of America's first and most prominent libertarians. For those of you who are reading my other blog, the man who introduced me to Sumner was Professor Too. Oh the irony!
