“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, 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 among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”— The Continental Congress, July 4, 1776
“The task of statesmanship has always been the re-definition of these rights in terms of a changing and growing social order.”
— Franklin D. Roosevelt (Commonwealth Club Address, 1932)
“Roosevelt was wrong! The principles laid down in the Declaration of Independence are the principles of individual liberty. Our unalienable rights, given to us by God are given to us as individuals. Our rights do not come from society or the government, and they cannot be redefined by politicians. The nature of these rights carries with it the implication of individual responsibility, without which we surrender them.”

Holy cow! It's the weekend

Another short week has passed. They all seem to be shorter and shorter these days.
This weekend my family is traveling south. We're going to Florence Oregon to help my father in law celebrate his eightieth birthday. His birthday was on Wednesday, but the family is gathering to celebrate on Saturday afternoon.
While I'm gone I won't have much, if any, access to the Internet so the blogging will probably be a bit sparse. I'm sure you'll be able to keep yourselves entertained with this open trackbacks post though. The more links that come in, the more easily you'll find interesting things to read.
This is your open trackbacks post for Friday, February 16, 2007 through Sunday, February 18, 2007.
If you have something interesting you'd like to share, feel free to link it here and leave a trackback.
Just remember the trackback policy.
For the best exposure, go to the blogger's oasis and use the linkfest chooser to choose the posts you'd like to hook up with.
