Real freedom is creative, proactive, and will take me into new territories. I am not free if my freedom is predicated on reacting to my past.
Georgian England was very radical; there were all these new revolutionary ideas, and I think women had more freedom than they did later on.
Sometimes by losing a battle you find a new way to win the war.
Liberals subscribe to the new flexible, pluralistic definition of the family; their defense of families carries no conviction.
My endorsement of Senator Obama will not be welcome news to my friends and family at the Clinton campaign.
