John Randolph's weblog
I first wrote this a couple of months ago, but it seems like this would be the best place for it:
I happened to hear a recording of a fine performance of our national anthem a short while ago, and the question posed at the end of the song suddenly caught my attention.
"O, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave, over the land of the free, and the home of the brave?"
That's really the most profound thing in Francis Scott Key's poem. The question isn't whether the symbol of freedom still exists, we can see that it does. The question is: are we still free? Are we still brave enough to demand and defend our liberty?
A year ago, I would probably have said no. Today though, with Ron Paul's book at #1 on the New York Times' bestseller list, I'm rather more hopeful than I have been in a very long time.
