Hey Everyone
« on: May 05, 2008, 10:03:51 PM »
 Just signed up. I arrived here via the scenic route...Free Republic>DUmmie FUnnies>DU (for the laughs and entertainment). Ive lurked for awhile but decided to take the plunge...looks like a fun bunch. Might take awhile to get up the courage to post but who knows...might just jump in with both feet!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Good to have you here!
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you. 
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience attains all that it strives for.
He who has God lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.
