The first few sentences I’ve teased out of my brain for tonight’s paper:
I agree in large measure with Barry Goldwater’s political vision as expressed in his book, The Conscience of a Conservative—though admittedly, I was at first quite reluctant to express such an association with conservative principles. I agree with Goldwater’s principled stand in favor of a strict (and often literal) constructionism, because it seems the most sure way to ensure the continued freedom and liberty of Americans in the face of big government.
I am experiencing an entirely different kind of “liberal guilt.”
EDIT (3:34 AM): Still working. Yummy (not really).
