Democrats Call for Democracy, Not Liberty

Keep in mind that as the Muslim nations experience strife, the liberal left has been claiming that the people in those countries are fighting for democracy. Democracy is a dangerous thing. It is a transitional system that ultimately leads to an oligarchy.

"[D]emocracy will soon degenerate into an anarchy, such an anarchy that every man will do what is right in his own eyes and no man's life or property or reputation or liberty will be secure, and every one of these will soon mould itself into a system of subordination of all the moral virtues and intellectual abilities, all the powers of wealth, beauty, wit and science, to the wanton pleasures, the capricious will, and the execrable cruelty of one or a very few." --John Adams, An Essay on Man's Lust for Power, 1763
