"Conservative - a statesman who is enamored of existing evils, as distinguished from a liberal, who wishes to replace then with others.".... Ambrose Bierce
He was jaded, no doubt (near death experiences in the Civil War had a tendency to do that to people). As for his being full of shit, I guess that depends on whether you agree with him or not. All things are political, right?
ouch, fine fine state of affairs.
ReplyDeleteMight it be possible that Ambrose Bierce was being a bit glib, or maybe just full of shit? Bitter Bierce perhaps? Just a thought.
