"Extremism in the defense of Liberty is NO VICE... moderation in the pursuit of justice is NO VIRTUE."

Report: Four score and seven (or a few million years) ago—an idea of freedom took root in this American soil. Knowing life is crisis, punctuated by brief periods of solace, we also know that after all is said and done, we shall never cheat infinity, nor extinguish the mark of a single thought. Like this mathematical pun, strong and fiercely sought, we engage this nation, its myths, its memories, its magnanimous messengers, and its monstrosities as we seek a more perfect union. But as always in America, we must rebuke an enemy with both fists on the wheel driving for success and justice for all. An enemy that is always changing is an enemy that never changes. We must engage that enemy on the ancient battleground where art and politics beat each other up and few are they who seem the wiser. We must reject roving wild-eyed policy now weakening our nation, to live again as one nation under truth, both as strategy, and as reality on the ground, certain of the age in which we struggle and from which we must engage the enemies that threaten our existence as a nation of liberty. A vigorous new morality must replace the old farces found frothing along the same profane beachheads as those which defiled the hopes of our ancestors. In renouncing our petty grievances must all stand together as one to rebuke our mortal and spiritual enemies who care not for our struggles, and even less for our feelings. We are at war, people.
