The day everything changed
We talk a lot about bold moves made by campaigns and political figures as if they have some great meaning to our lives, or some major impact upon the course of human events. But even the best of the planning, scheming and calculations that are part of South Carolina's political process pale in comparision to those which took place in the run-up to the day which we have come to know by simply as "D-Day".That's a small name for an event which changed the world.
For us political hacks, June 10 may seem important, but for those of us who love liberty and have high hopes for the future of mankind, June 6 is the day that really matters.
Take a minute to reflect upon their courage and be thankful for what they did, and what they gave up, on that day. For all they did, it's the very least we can do.
In those days, we did have a press that decided not to be the enemy's best intelligence source. Now under the guise of freedom of the press, with an agenda of political expediency, that has changed. Perhaps lying to the press, since they aren't going to report much of the truth has some merit.
