15 Years of Let Freedom Ring!

The Let Freedom Ring blog had a 15 year run until hackers and hosting issues finally ended its run in March 2021. This new static blog takes its place, re-publishing that robust collection of posts. As with any long-running blog, many of the links are no longer valid and a number of embedded images were lost. But the text is all here, with some minor editing as needed to be Blogger compatible. Almost all of the comments are also included. Each post here contains 1 to 9 original LFR posts, plus links to prior months that same year and all prior years. Click the year links below to get started. Or, use the Blogger search feature to find specific people and events. Again, this is up through March of 2021. The next 15 years have begun at the Liberty & Prosperity Blog . 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 From the author's original About page (2006): Let Freedom Ring Blog gets its name because there was

It's mostly a bailout of Democrat special interest groups. This LTE provides a list of some of the pork in the bill: $85 billion for the rescue of about 180 multi-employer pensions plans insured by the Pension/Benefit Guaranty Corp managed by employer sponsors and unions. $30 billion for publi

In the article, she writes about how Lena Carson went from being a talented student to a kid on the brink of failing. She wrote "One year ago, Lena Carson was pulling straight A's at the city's Creative and Performing Arts School across the river from her parent's home. She also swam every day at the local YMCA in preparation to compete at the annual state competition and enjoyed the everyday social life of a teenager. Today, she is sitting at home. Again." Zito continued: A bright student who skipped a grade, her straight A's

This isn't surprising. In fact, it's predictable. Looking back at 2020, dismantling the MPD looks like a terrible idea. Then again, it looked terrible at the time it was proposed. Acc
