In these opening hours of 2008 may we in America re-dedicate ourselves to the cause of freedom and justice in our country and around the world. Let us commit to proper study in the areas where we lack knowledge. Let us commit to action where action is called for. Let us conserve what should be conserved and reform what needs reforming; and let us have the discernment to know the difference.
If this sounds like a prayer, so be it.
There are unique challenges to our democratic republic which confront us in this new election year. As important as an election is, we must be reminded that under current circumstances we can perhaps not influence events through elections as much as we might wish.* As the days ahead unfold, I hope to provide some resources to you which may help in your understanding of events.
In the meantime, may we who are able eat hearty -- to gain strength for service.
Peace,
TMP
