quote of the day
Rudy Giuliani came out with this gem in the New York Times, illuminating the GOP’s pro-freedom agenda (H/t to Digby at Hullabaloo):
Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do.
Sorry, Rudy.
Freedom (the real stuff, not the pallid version beloved by authoritarian conservatives) is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority as little discretion as possible over what we do.
