To me the word freedom means freedom to go to church or not where I want, freedom to educate myself and my family, freedom to vote, freedom to have access to my elected representatives, freedom to speak my mind. It does not mean freedom to own, use, collect and play with the sorts of weapons that only make sense in the hands of Marines like my son when they are at war, but no sense whatsoever in the hands of civilians.You can stop by and read his blog here. If you don't know his history, he and his father were the architects of The Religious Right movement started in the 70's and came to full fruition during Saint Ronnie's rule in the 80's. This movement is the foundation of the mess we're in. To Frank's credit, he takes responsibility (unlike anyone on the right) for what he helped create and now he tries to tell the world how much he had it wrong.

This almost makes his history forgivable. It puts a notch in it anyway. You don't see anyone on the right these days taking responsibility for any of the garbage they've created. Except here.
ReplyDeletenope and they are doubling down DP, just like the right. the next few years are going to be hell.
