 Liberty Social Life
It was about this time that many of the pioneers of the community died.
By 1916 the community was said to have more cars than any other village of it's size in the northern tier of PA. The rapid acceptance of the horseless carriage was probably due to the lack of a railroad for transportation and the building of relatively good roads.
Throughout the twenties the Ku Klux Klan was active in Liberty and throughout the county.

 Liberty vs. democracy - Commentary - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
It is a document of liberty, not of democracy.
It is argued you cannot have sustained periods of liberty without democracy, and that argument does have merit.
Those economic/political units today that have liberty without democracy are almost all colonies or territories of large democracies (the notable exception is Hong Kong, which remains largely free because of the treaty).

 The Seattle Times: Books: "Liberty and Freedom" should be required reading for all Americans
David Hackett Fischer has fashioned an elaborate history of American liberty and freedom — where those ideas have come from and where they may be going.
Much of his focus is on the iconography of liberty and freedom: flags, photos, statues, songs, posters, cartoons, paintings, campaign buttons, military shoulder patches, quilts, ceramics, even a porcelain toilet sporting an image of the American eagle.
For them, an effort to preserve a free society by restricting liberty and freedom is not merely mistaken but absurd.

 Cape Cod Times: Guarding Liberty (September 30, 2001)
NEW YORK - Approaching the central harbor from Staten Island, the Statue of Liberty shone bright, and the topmost peaks of the city skyline glinted in the morning sun.
For the first time in more than 20 years, that icon of architecture once again dominates after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center twin towers only a block from the harbor.
From the stern, the Statue of Liberty's golden torch caught the sunlight, and the Tahoma's white hull with the crimson slash of the Coast Guard gleamed.

 Merry...Whatever - by Lady Liberty - Sierra Times.com
It seemed to me at the time that the only constitutional treatment of the displays was to either permit all of them or refuse all of them.
By constantly demanding that people give up their personal religious beliefs merely because they happen to be on public property at the time, First Amendment guarantees of freedom of worship, speech, and assembly are being violated.
At the same time, those who would insist that the government take on the characteristics of a majority religion are violating the same precepts even as they engage in discriminatory behaviors to boot.

 Amazon.com: Liberty: Incorporating Four Essays on Liberty : Books: Isaiah Berlin,Henry Hardy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
This book "Liberty" is a newly edited and expanded edition of Berlin's most famous work "Four Essays in Liberty." Since his death, his editor Henry Hardy had drawn together his books and essays and they have been assembled in new editions.
Positive liberty he associated with the idea of self-mastery, or the capacity to determine oneself, to be in control of one's destiny.
This became politically dangerous when the relevant ideals of positive liberty were, in the course of the 19th century, used to defend ideals of national self-determination, imperatives of democratic self-government, and the communist notion of humanity collectively asserting rational control over its own destiny.

 Weblog - Law - Times Online: 'Liberty in the modern world'   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
A state in which a suspect is treated for official purposes as “sort of guilty” by virtue of having been accused is the nightmare of many people who have lived under such regimes.
If someone accused of gang thuggery against citizens on the street is rapidly put before a law court, having been allowed the assistance of a lawyer with whom he or she has had time to consult, there is no violation of basic rights.
The spread of knife-culture, youth gangs and sociopathic violence outside schools is not happening because the culprits have evaluated the rules of criminal evidence and procedure, found them lacking in rigour and resolved on an option of mayhem.

 Count Me In... - by Lady Liberty - Sierra Times.com
By weighing the costs and benefits of the likely votes for or against any given program or project, politicians often make their decisions based not on what's best or what's right, but rather what's best for them and right for getting the most voter support come the next election.
Some consider most elections and politicians corrupt for reasons such as the ones I've mentioned here; others wouldn't vote for even the most honest candidate ever to put his hat in the ring simply because they don't believe in giving carte blanche authority over their lives and property to anyone else.
Meanwhile, back in Ohio, Jackson and a coalition of supports have now also filed suit, this time to overturn the election results in the state all together, even as officials there maintain the machines "did a good job" and that "electronic voting went well" on November 2.

 Liberty Teas of Colonial America   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Journalists of the time also perpetuated the nasty rumor that foreign tea bred lice and fleas, and was the unappetizing product of Chinese pagans' bare and grimy feet, stomping the leaves firmly into tea chests for export.
Teas brewed up in those Revolutionary times were aptly known as "Liberty Teas." There was much experimentation with various herbs and wild plants, singly and in combination.
Native Americans and eventually the colonists, who learned from them, knew sassafras is a "tonic tea." To make a modern-day Spicy Sassafras Tea, boil together for ten minutes, a half-cup of sassafras bark, plus 5 whole cloves, slightly crushed, and 1 tablespoon broken cinnamon sticks, in 4 cups of water for 5-10 minutes.

 Positive Liberty
By the time a party has gone from price controls under Nixon, to deregulation under Reagan, to the biggest spending increases in living memory under Bush, it should be clear that our current political parties don’t actually stand for anything at all.
Continuing with the theme of my last post, and referencing the same LA Times article about gay men having children with the help of surrogates, I wonder whether gays’ artificial reproduction may actually produce “better” social outcomes (children grow up to be better educated, earn more, have more talents, etc.) than from “normal” heterosexual reproduction.
Is this the liberty for which they fought and died?” Whether they realized it or not, arguably yes.

Indeed, during the Jubilee year they were to "proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof" (Leviticus 25:10) This description of the Jubilee year is inscribed on the United States Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Since the proclamation of freedom and liberty of the Jubilee year celebration links so clearly to the mission of Jesus Christ, it would not be surprising if this calendar cycle was planned so that the birth of Christ would take place in a Jubilee year.
