Below The Beltway

I believe in the free speech that liberals used to believe in, the economic freedom that conservatives used to believe in, and the personal freedom that America used to believe in.

Further Thoughts on the 4th

by @ 4:46 pm on July 4, 2005.

First of all, Thanks for the link, Raymond.

Second, the point made in the link above about comparing today’s politicans to the Founders reminds me of This special from the Discovery Channel which included a survey in which Ronald Reagan was named the “Greatest American” in history. George Washington came in 4th and Thomas Jefferson came in 12th.

Now I am a fan of The Gipper myself, but the idea that he outranks the likes of Washington and Jefferson in terms of greatness — whatever that means — is just absurd.
