“The proper role of the government is to prevent other people from harming an individual. Government never has any right to interfere with an individual for that individual’s own good. The case for prohibiting drugs is exactly as strong and as weak as the case for prohibiting people from over eating. We all know that over-eating causes more deaths than drugs do.”

How a little foray into the flesh trade changes your perspective:
This was a very serious sin in my past for which I am, of course, completely responsible. Several years ago, I asked for and received forgiveness from God and my wife in confession and marriage counseling. Out of respect for my family, I will keep my discussion of the matter there-with God and them. But I certainly offer my deep and sincere apologies to all I have disappointed and let down in any way.

Some current polls may suggest that people are turned off by the whole Clinton mess and don’t care — because the stock market is good, the Clinton spin machine is even better or other reasons. But that doesn’t answer the question of whether President Clinton should be impeached and removed from office because he is morally unfit to govern.
kin me like beef jerky and call me an Iraqi civilian:
Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly promised his audience “the truth about Iraq” on Thursday, saying that most Americans now feel the war has not been worth the costs, while “the president’s argument for sustaining the war is largely theoretical.”
O’Reilly turned on his special guest during the segment, White House press secretary Tony Snow, saying, “You can’t win … unless the Iraqi people turn on all the terrorists. And they’re not.”
Yes… Bill O’Reilly has finally turned the page on turning the corner on making progress on going against the war. Isn’t this about the thousandth time he’s said he’s fed up with the war?
And while O’Reilly is making progress on the war, Ted Kennedy is making progress on immigration:
Regarding the 1965 bill that sparked the resurgence of large-scale immigration, Senator Kennedy predicted: “The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission.” Regarding the 1986 Immigration and Reform Control Act (the first amnesty of illegal immigrants), Senator Kennedy predicted: “This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal aliens. We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this.” The 1986 legislation, by the way, ended up granting amnesty to around 3 million illegal immigrants.
In the private sector, this kind of track record would probably make Senator Kennedy an inviting target for all kinds of malpractice lawsuits.
