Freedom

I apologize to Francois Tremblay over at Check your Premise for stealing his post. But it was just so good I had to put it up for my meager(if any) readers to see. Much apologies and thanks Mr. Tremblay.

From a Rudy Giuliani speech in 1994:

…freedom is not a concept in which people can do anything they want, be anything they can be. Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do.

You have to love that line of thinking from a man that wants to be your president dont you? According to him, freedom means you cant make a decision for yourself, so let some other guy who cant decide for himself make the decision for you. Stupendous.
