The Party's Over

(T)here has not been a sudden sea change in party platforms and the rampant fiscal irresponsibility of the Republicans is not a mystery; they are merely returning to their historical roots. The Republican Party was established as a party of big government and economic intervention. Their reputation as a party of limited government is of more recent vintage and stands on a flimsy foundation.

Monday I handed in the picture of Alex Hamilton I used to carry around my neck, the one with my own picture at the bottom. (The portrait of Alex was kind of faint. For a long time I thought it was a smudge.) I guess I am free to be a Democrat if I want to be. Or any other damn thing I feel like. Then again I always was. At least as free as anybody else, and maybe a little more. Which may not be all that much.

Cheers.

What Cross?

You are the Celtic Cross: This cross was first made
out of stone and is often found atop hills, in
front of castles and in graveyards throughout
Ireland and Scotland. The stone was carved with
various symbols including a circle or halo
(representing eternal life) and variations of
the celtic knot.
