I’m not doing a separate post her for July 4. I posted a story on my Jevlir Caravansary posing some questions about obedience, patriotism, and morality. You can post any comments about not quitting my day job there!

Quote of the Day on The Agitator
Byhenry November 18, 2010
I think it’s a good one. I part ways with many liberal and moderate friends over Citizens United.
