Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

In addition to that, No Direction Home on Netflix is about to expire.

I am watching it now, and could not help but think of the great folks whose presence is here, at least in part.

For that part of you you all give to here, I want you to know it is appreciated. It is something.

Thank you.

Did he say "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" was part of the Constitution? Wasn't that same mistake made recently by someone else?

I cut him some slack on that. Actually, I believe he said they were "enshrined" (i.e. enforced) in the Constitution. IMHO, it might have been better if he said "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happines" was spelled out in the Declaration of Independence and enshrined in the Constitution, but I think we all know what he meant.
