"You and I are told we must choose between a left or right, but I suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down. Up to man's age-old dream-the maximum of individual freedom consistent with order or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism. Regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would sacrifice freedom for security have embarked on this downward path."
- Ronald "Apocalypse" Reagan, in his famous Goldwater speech
Don't worry, I'm not turning into some Reaganite. I just thought it was funny that 666's words could be twisted against the Bush administration. And yeah, you have to squint a little to do that.
For God's sake, leave the rest of the speech alone. I linked it for fairness' sake but it's just a catalogue of whining, bitter conservative BS best left to the ashheap of history.
