Some quotes about freedom

What's this?  You mean they had the "politically correct police" way back then?  It sure sounds like it to me.

The Founding Fathers on Maintaining Freedom

"The greatest danger to American freedom is a government that ignores the Constitution."
Thomas Jefferson
Third President of the United States

 "The people never give up their liberties but under some delusion."
Edmund Burke
British Statesman, 1784

---

"What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance. Let them take arms."
Thomas Jefferson
to James Madison

And my current personal favorite of these:

 "There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters. "
Noah Webster
American Lexicographer

Good masters, intellectual betters, idiot-liberals ... it's all the same.
