The word liberal comes from the word free. We must cherish and honor the word free or it will cease to apply to us. -Eleanor Roosevelt
Just wanted to share these wise words this morning. Freedom is the reason that I've called myself a liberal all of my life... without freedom, what would we have? Too many politicians would take away too many of our rights, if given half the chance... the right for women to have a say about what we do with our bodies, the right to our religious practices, the right to express ourselves freely. Let's not give the people who would do these things any more power than they already have. Freedom isn't something that should be taken for granted.
