If you spend your own money on yourself, you care how much you spend and how well you spend it. if you spend your own money on someone else, you care how much you spend, but you don't care how well it is spent. if you spend someone else's money on yourself, you don't care how much you spend, but you do care how well it is spent. and finally, if you spend someone else's money on someone else, you don't care how much you spend, and you don't care how well it is spent. that is government.

If the court strikes down the defense of marriage act, is that a 'liberal' result enabling gay couples married in states where gay marriage is legal to enjoy the same economic advantages that federal laws now grant to straight couples? or is it a 'conservative' ruling, limiting the federal government's ability to override state power?

So let us begin anew -- remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness, and sincerity is always subject to proof. let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us never fear to negotiate. let both sides explore what problems unite us instead of belaboring those problems which divide us.
Weakness Sides Remember
Negative feelings are in you, not in reality. stop trying to change reality. that's crazy! stop trying to change the other person. we spend all our time and energy trying to change external circumstances, trying to change our spouses, our bosses, our friends, our enemies, and everybody else. we don't have to change anything. negative feelings are in you.
