"The Press was protected so that it could bare the secrets
of the government and inform the people. Only a free and
unrestrained press can effectively expose deception in
government. And paramount among the responsibilities of a
free press is the duty to prevent any part of the government
from deceiving the people." -- Justice Hugo L. Black (1886-1971) US Supreme Court Justice Source: New York Times v. Unites States (Pentagon Papers) 1971 [The press isn’t free if it’’s biased. – JS]
"I blew it!" Come to think of it, we've all blown it! We don't
measure up. We're not divine. We might be decent, but decent won't
save us. Only the divine, the truly righteous, make it past the
grave and into glory. Thank God grace is freely given and the price
for our sin was paid by Jesus. While I "blew it," he renewed it! From Heartlight…
"Every citizen should be a soldier. This was the case with the Greeks and Romans, and must be that of every free state." Thomas Jefferson
