Nanny State


"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience".

C. S. Lewis (1898 - 1963)

If we vote for Hillary, as Ann Coulter says she'll do if McCain gets the GOP nomination, the Nanny State will become a terrifying reality. At least with McCain there's some hope we can keep the beast at bay for a little while longer.
