"The social contract exists so that everyone doesn’t have to squat in the dust holding a spear to protect his woman and his meat all day every day. It does not exist so that the government can take your spear, your meat, and your woman because it knows better what to do with them." - Instapundit.com
That sounds about right.

you know what struck me most about Palin's speech......after two solid days of the left calling her everything except human, she walked out on that stage with a smile on her face, not a blink in her eye and spoke as if she were justing getting up from having coffee with the neighbors.....
and I want to say one other thing....how many of you know high school seniors who after getting a girl pregnant and having 275 million people find out about it would be willing to get on a plane from Alaska, sit next to their girlfriend in front of thirty or forty million people and hold her hand......my hat's off to Levi......

"Hello!"
"Levi"
"Yes Ma'am"
"Are you ready to go?"
Ah.......
"Are you packed and ready to go?"
Ah.
"The car will be there for you in fifteen minutes. You will be standing in the front yard ready"
Ah..............
When you reach the airport and meet up with everyone you will call me!"
Ah............
All all of these instructions perfectly clear Levi?"
"Yes Ma'am"
If you continue to think the way you have always thought, you will continue to get what you have always got!
A government big enough to provide you everything you need is big enough to take everything you have!
As a former 17 year old with a 16 year old girlfriend that was quite fond of premaritial sex that had a very uncomfortable conversation with a concerned mother over these topics, I can only cringe at Levi's pressure right now.
