Samizdata quote of the day
Samizdata Illuminatus (Arkham, Massachusetts)  Slogans/quotations

The various left-wing ninnies who are running around bleating about theocracy are, in effect, hoist on their own petard. Having spent generations destroying the idea of limited government and creating an all-powerful national state, it ill becomes them to complain now that their tool is being turned to different ends.
- Robert Clayton Dean

Very true. By creating a monstrous Government, they've attracted those kinds of groups who'll jump on such concentrated power to further their own ends. And religions love power.

You mean by promoting one form of collectivism they've legitimated other forms? Who could have imagined?
