Notable Quote – Woodrow Wilson

Liberty has never come from government.  Liberty has always come from the subjects of government.  The history of liberty is the history of resistance.

-Woodrow Wilson, President

I find my self in complete agree with the above, but find it incongruent that it passes from the first national level politician that proudly wore the label "Progressive".  That movement, whose latest uber-proponent, is Barack Obama, believes not in the definition of liberty as espoused by the Founding Fathers but in a redefinition of that term as something given to the masses from a government composed of elites governing from the heights of an "enlightened" sense of a rational Science of Politics that would make all those silly decisions of government for us.

In this, President Wilson may well have been describing the TEA Party movement, as these "subjects" are now rebelling from that self same Progressive movement’s attempts to "rule for us".
