Exactly. Competing interests… Individuals keep the honest people honest and the rest from running amuck. The only requirement is that these interests or individuals be capable of self-moderating behavior.
Good luck, Americans. Decadence is not inevitable, but it is progressive, and it must be checked.
But, but, but… Ain’t the Tea Party just like OWS???
Nah, just grassroots folks doing what needs to be done to save this country from those that would destroy freedom, regulate your entire life from dawn to dusk and those who would empty your pocketbooks in the name of big government.
Cruz’s victory was a triumph over the establishment which included Rick Perry, author of the infamous Texas “Dream Act.”
I feel great even though I only contributed one vote…
Heard today that Cruz’s victory is due to Eric Holder filing suit to delay the Texas primary originally scheduled for March this year. Dewhurst had the lead back then but thanks to Holder’s interference, Cruz got the opportunity to get his message out.
Yes, let’s celebrate Cruz’s win and hope you Texans get him elected this fall. Then remind him, always, of the path he must take forward.

What They Are Saying About Me
"Someone with credibility is saying these things and trying to do something. Thank you."
"'Obtuse' is just about the nicest thing I could say about Jacobson. The problem with being too steeped in any profession is that you run the risk of no longer understanding the difference between reality and your profession's most obscure minutiae."
"I just wanted to thank you for writing such a great article on your reasons why you voted for John McCain. I wish everyone would have read that article."
"Jacobson is doing only what other McCain supporters are starting to do, produce these worthless pieces from some narrow perch in order to cover up their own racist bigotry"
"Cornell and the country need more educators like yourself to keep the flag of reason flying."
“I take it Jacobson teaches at the cow college part of Cornell, and not the elite section where Coulter attended.”
"Thank you for speaking out... and I hope you avoid repercussions in 'The People's Republic of Ithaca.'"

I think Cruz is the real deal. So do the Collectivists.
The TEA Parties are alive, energetic, effective, and bent on reform.
BUT we also recognize that AFTER electing a Ted Cruz, we STILL have to hold his feet on the path.
There is no resting any more.

Woo. Hoo. Pure total class.
