Thomas Jefferson

When people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.




Benjamin Franklin

Those who would give up essential liberty to obtain temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

First Time Blogger

Hello Bloggers,

This is my first foray into blogging. I have no idea how many will be interested in the thoughts and ideas that will go in here, but it is a forum for me to express them (some will say vent). Just to be clear I am a strict constitutionalist, state's rights advocate and have libertarian leanings. Some will belittle this as 'mad' or otherwise try to discredit minimize what is said, what others will do who knows (usually any independent, self sufficient, freedom loving ideas are derided as crazy). This are my thoughts and last time I checked it was still legal under the right to free speech (although we will see what limits they place on us next). If the words speak to you great (if not just dont read them). Feel free to agree or disagree. If it encourages debate and makes you stop and think great (better than parroting what you hear and whichever news channel you tune into). Most Americans I believe are woefully ignorant about most things, if it get even on person to stop and think or get more active on a particular issue, then that is a good thing. Regardless, enjoy and hopefully someone will find something in the ramblings oi a MadAmerican.
