Shining City on a Hill

Posted by Jeff as Uncategorized

I particularly liked this part of the President’s speech last night.

“To sustain this shining city on a hill,” Mr. Bush said, “we need to rescue the ignorant, irresponsible folks — from Wall Street to Capitol Hill to Main Street — who got us to where we are today. We must guarantee that no American suffers the soft bigotry of being forced to live with the consequences of his bad decisions.”

[From ScrappleFace — News Fairly Unbalanced. We Report. You Decipher.]

but this part was equally compelling.

“Americans value the liberty they have to buy homes they can’t afford, to invest in securities backed by nothing but hope, and to draw six- and seven-figure salaries based on the courage to risk taxpayer dollars on deals that even the dealmakers don’t understand.”
