Keep the Republic

A blog dedicated to expressing faith in God, hope in America, and a conviction to preserve the principles on which the nation was founded. Benjamin Franklin, after the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention, was asked by a concerned citizen of Philadelphia what type of government had been created after four months of closed-door meetings by the delegates; he responded, "A republic, if you can keep it."

Some habits die hard

At a recent meeting of the National Association for Television Programming Executives, Ted Turner compared the appeal of Fox News to the popularity of Adolf Hitler prior to World War II. This after apologizing in 1996 to the Anti-Defamation League for comparing News Corporation's Rupert Murdoch to . . . you guessed it, Adolf Hitler. (Ted appears to be recycling his slurs these days.) At that time, he said such an analogy "trivialize[d] a profound historical tragedy."

How can we miss Ted if he won't go away.
