Proudly delegitimizing the state since 2005
"Aye, free! Free as a tethered ass!" —W.S. Gilbert
"All the affairs of men should be managed by individuals or voluntary associations, and . . . the State should be abolished." —Benjamin Tucker
"You must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself." —James Madison
"Fat chance." —Sheldon Richman
From the back cover:
This book challenges the assumption that the Constitution was a landmark in the struggle for liberty. Instead, Sheldon Richman argues, it was the product of a counter-revolution, a setback for the radicalism represented by America’s break with the British empire. Drawing on careful, credible historical scholarship and contemporary political analysis, Richman suggests that this counter-revolution was the work of conservatives who sought a nation of “power, consequence, and grandeur.” America’s Counter-Revolution makes a persuasive case that the Constitution was a victory not for liberty but for the agendas and interests of a militaristic, aristocratic, privilege-seeking ruling class.
—Henry David Thoreau
"Free association . . . the only true form of society."
—Pierre-Joseph Proudhon

In fact, I hate it.
Not readable on my windows mobile.
Sucky, but it did cut the HTML validation error count down by 60%. Didn't fix the problem I mentioned to you, though.
Not a good one; better to have a weblog with your own domain name.
Orange is nice at sunset but not on blogs.
I liked the old scheme much better.
Ben, me too. That option has disappeared, however.
My blogger blog still has the older style. Why can't you use the old one?
I don't see how to get back to it.
I found it.
Sheldon, how did you get your blog back to the old template? I did the same thing you did, and I'm not happy with the new templates they've offered as well. In fact, they suck.
How did you do it? Care to let me in a secret here? :-)
Go to Deign/Edit HTML and scroll to bottom. You''ll be able to get back to the old templates.
Cool. I found it. Thanks Sheldon. :)
