George F. Smith


“Terrorism works better as a tactic for dictatorships, or for would-be dictators, than for revolutionaries.”

Christopher Hitchens


"You shall not criticize the position of another...until you can state that position with such accuracy, completeness and sympathy, that the opponent himself declares, 'Yes, I could not have said it better myself!'

The Hinlicky Rule
