Quote of the Day

From The Patriot Post:

"A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader." ~ Samuel Adams (letter to James Warren, 12 February 1779)

Maggie,

I too found a quote that rang true in the Patriot Post Chronicle from later today. It just seemed to fit recent events.

"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and those are the people you need to concentrate on." - Robert Strauss
