Out and About

So, before I depart this vale of tears, otherwise known as my gainful employment, for the weekend, I have a few parting thoughts.

It occurred to me the other day that a sensible approach to reading the news of the day was to drink myself stupid. Alas, Congress appears to have beaten me to it.

I also think right about now, these are important words to remember:

He that would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

The applications of this principle in today's political environment are endless.
