Sweet steel! Come forth from out your sheath,
And glist’ning, speak your powers;
Rip up the organs of my breath,
And draw my blood in showers!

I strike! It quivers in that heart
Which drives me to this end;
I draw and kiss the bloody dart,
My last—my only friend!

Give up?

I have no idea whether or not Reagan would have approved of the monster that many of his policies helped to create. His intentions here are not important; what is important, however, is that the U.S. Government has become an even bigger threat to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That is the real Reagan legacy, and it is one that neither the critics of the left or the admirers on the right will ever understand. -- William L. Anderson

Read this. Now. I mean it. If only for the take on Mayor Rudy.

I wonder, though, as I do about Nixon, whether Reagan might not have been a good President, maybe a great President, certainly a less destructive President, had he been elected eight years earlier than he was.
