Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.
Only God can make a tree; but only Man can drive by one so fast.

The second item in the liberal creed, afterself-righteousness, is unaccountability. Liberals have invented whole college majors–psychology, sociology, women’s studies–to prove that nothing is anybody’s fault. No one is fond of taking responsibility for his actions, but consider how much you’d have to hate free will to come up with a political platform that advocates killing unborn babies but not convicted murderers. A callous pragmatist might favorabortion and capital punishment. A devout Christian would sanction neither. But it takes years of therapy to arrive at the liberal view.
