intracoastal wanderings: Archive

So today I discovered that the best riverside restaurant I’ve been to in the Charleston area, the old River Cafe on Folly Beach, which closed down years ago, is now open again, under a new name and probably new ownership. I’ll definitely be checking out the Sandbar Restaurant quite soon.

The Southern Avenger: Joe Sobran’s Essay on Patriotism All Conservatives Should Read → southernavenger.com

“…In the same way, many Americans admire America for being strong, not for being American. For them America has to be ‘the greatest country on earth’ in order to be worthy of their devotion. If it were only the 2nd-greatest, or the 19th-greatest, or, heaven forbid, ‘a 3rd-rate power,’ it would be virtually worthless.

“This is nationalism, not patriotism. Patriotism is like family love. You love your family just for being your family, not for being ‘the greatest family on earth’ (whatever that might mean)…”

I can't believe all my friends are celebrating a bunch of isolationist secessionists today.
