Admittedly this last quote is simply mind boggling, which is why I threw it in here. Is he trying to say that progress is a bad thing? Clearly the last kind of government I want is one that is afraid of progress. I'm amazed his version of that article is electronic!
LOL. Man I wish the Conservatives did not sell that word to the Left for a dollar back in the early 2000s when the parties merged. It's not like the word "Progressivism" really stands for anything resembling 'progress'. It's just a junk term lopped on to policies and beliefs of the left to make their idea's seem more enlightened.
