“In Order To Do What Some Americans Deem As Good, It Must First Do Evil”
Quite by accident, I recently ran across an article by Walter Williams from over a year ago. As I read it, I realized that its as good an explanation as any for why so many people are waking up and getting involved in Tea Parties or otherwise speaking out to try to preserve our Constitutional government and freedoms.
