Notable Quote – Christopher Chantrill

You liberals took a wrong turn over a century ago. You thought of yourselves as a benevolent, beneficent elite, kindly dispensing justice and benefits to a grateful nation through a professional expert-led government.

You completely misunderstood the nature of government.

Government is force, not a beneficent Oz, and politics is civil war by other means. When you call for a new government program, you saying: forget peaceful cooperation and negotiation. We must go to war and impose our will by force.

It’s the liberal thing to do.

–  Christopher Chantrill (blogger over at American Thinker)

Remember, with Democrats  it is NEVER the actual purpose of Government (“…that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted…”) but quite the opposite:
