This blog is looking for wisdom, to have and to share. It is also looking for other rare character traits like good humor, courage, and honor. It is not an easy road, because all of us fall short. But God is love, forgiveness and grace. Those who believe in Him and repent of their sins have the promise of His Holy Spirit to guide us and show us the Way.

Enlightened tyrants
David Harsanyi is at his best when writing about the "enlightened tyrants" who think our freedoms are getting in the way of "progress." Today in the Denver Post he takes on Woody Allen, who wishes Obama could be a dictator, Thomas Friedman, who believes despotism can be a good thing if the despots are "enlightened, as in modern China," Chris Matthews, who wonders why we have not yet nationalized the oil industry, and Donald Berwick, Obama's choice to run Obamacare. Berwick is fond of the rationing program in Britain, called the National Hea lth Service.
