Well said, Prof. Jacobson

In his brand-spanking-new blog that somehow manages not to lose anything that was good and familiar from the previous design, Cornell Law Prof. William Jacobson reflects on "how supportive successful bloggers are of newbies" in this post.

I happened to click on a previous post from 9/29/09 that he referenced and was blown away by his "mission statement" because I think it perfectly reflects why most, if not all, conservative bloggers 'keep on keeping on' despite any inconvencience or difficulties.

Please read it and know: we will either win or go down fighting. I believe we will prevail.

To this great country, you are worth fighting for. The people who think creeping socialism is cool don't have a clue as to the deep damage they are doing. I will not shut up about it, will continue to post the truth about where we are heading, and will fight with every last electron to stop the decline of this nation at the hands of those lazy, handout-seeking, selfish fools who think everything we have earned came for free, that history began a decade ago, and that they are owed something.

What troubles me more than anything is that this government is stealing the future from my children, and my not-yet-conceived grandchildren. Such generational theft is unforgivable and will not be forgotten.

This is the fight of our lives for the benefit not of ourselves, but of future generations. Will our children and our children's children have the freedom to make their own way in life, or will we relegate them to being beggars at the alter of government handouts?

This time, it really is all about the children, and our own legacy.
