The Founding Fathers Said...

A constitution founded on these principles introduces knowledge among the people, and inspires them with a conscious dignity becoming freemen; a general emulation takes place, which causes good humor, sociability, good manners, and good morals to be general. That elevation of sentiment inspired by such a government, makes the common people brave and enterprising. That ambition which is inspired by it makes them sober, industrious, and frugal. – John Adams, Thoughts on Government, 1776

The first step toward achieving modern stability in Libya — not the brittle and brutal false stability of tyranny — is regime change.

By Terence Jeffrey (Archive) · Wednesday, March 23, 2011 Leave aside for a moment whether it was wise for President Obama to order our military to intervene in Libya’s civil war, siding with rebels we know little about against a dictator who has sponsored terrorism against us.

Mar 22, 2011 IBD Leadership: Obama critics were quick to link U.S. loans for Brazil oil to benefits for his investor pal George Soros. There was no link in this case, but considering how this president operates, it’s no wonder suspicions ran high. The president’s announcement that his administration would lend billions of dollars to [...]
