Founders' Daily Quote: 2 Sept 08

"It is very imprudent to deprive America of any of her privileges. If her commerce and friendship are of any importance to you, they are to be had on no other terms than leaving her in the full enjoyment of her rights."

--Benjamin Franklin (Political Observations); Reference: The Works of Benjamin Franklin, Jared Sparks, ed., 297.

Here, here! (In other words, leave me alone, I leave you alone. Mess with me, I mess with you. Got it?)
