Quote for the day

[T]his is America, remember: we’re a country of the imagination, a living state of mind. We’re not connected to one another by bloodlines or any depth of native memory. We’re the descendants of an idea that every generation has to learn to hold in its collective consciousness. More than in any other country, it matters in American who we think we are and what we believe we’re doing.

Ain't that the truth?

From Fred Thompson's blog, Fred08 on November 26th, 2007:

More Praise for Fred’s Tax Relief Plan - Patrick Joubert Conlon at Born Again Redneck called the plan, “music to a businessman’s ears.”

C.D. Jewell,

Liberalstein,

"This blog interested me first because of the title. But the quality of Patrick Joubert Conlon's writing has kept me coming back. His style is not presumptuous or pompous or condescending; it's plain and simple. Good old American English. Which is funny because Mr. Conlon was born and lived in South Africa for his first twenty one years and after that spent eight years in England before finding his home here in the U. S. His blog provides a rare outsider/insider perspective on the U. S. of A. He's been linked to by CNN on a couple of occasions and one of his posts was cited by the official Fred08 website. He does a lot of politics but also some lighter fare as well. He frequently posts spectacular photos taken on his Oregon farm."
