In an attempt to make us safer from outside powers, we're now more exposed to dangers from within our own government.  I want America to be secure because it protects its citizens from corruption and excess, both from without AND from within.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://edition.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/11/11/paul.republican/index.html">I'm afraid that the 'true' conservatives would hand over so much power to business interests that there would be no protections left for citizens against them.  I don't want to be nannied by the government, but at the same time I want to be among a confederation of citizens which holds the power necessary to protect us from those that would exploit us.  </blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://edition.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/11/11/paul.republican/index.html">As in all things, balance.  If a government would have strong secure citizens, then it ~must~ protect those citizens from greed and corruption, or else that government is worse than useless.				</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/4AD25F72-1136-4AD9-AFC7-9EDB80A4C4DF/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
