I'm catching up on reading and viewing this week. The preznit-dential press conference is my favorite TV show, because we can see and hear that ol' boy in unvarnished form. This time around, the key word was "free". As a caption of the image below the fold, I had a few choice quotations which equated freedom with purity of purpose. As any teenager can explain, freedom automatically leads to righteousness before the Lord.
Free people will never choose to live in tyranny.
You see, free societies do not export terror.
And, coming in a bit wordy ...
Look, we are a nation of laws and to the extent that people say, well, America is no longer a nation of laws -- that does hurt our reputation. But I think it's an unfair criticism.
