Strengthening Constitutional Self-Government

No Left Turns

It’s a wonderful movie

Here, courtesy of Get Religion, is a nice piece revisiting It’s a Wonderful Life. Is George Bailey, among other things, the developer who builds over cemetaries (first noted for me by Patrick Deneen), the quintessential American Christian?

Thanks for the catch. I’ve corrected the post.

And your libertarianism is showing.
