The security of our nation depends on the men and women who are willing to sacrifice their safety, and possibly their lives, to protect the freedoms the rest of us enjoy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The true credit for our safety and security goes to our men and women who are serving in places like Iraq and Afghanistan in the global war on terrorism.
Most people want security in this world, not liberty.
Freedom is secured every day by our men and women in uniform. We must build a future worthy of their sacrifice.
When we ask American men and women in uniform to fight for this country and to defend this country's interest and then to send them overseas, there is no question we have an obligation to protect them and provide for their safety.
The desire for security must be balanced with our regard for liberty.
We must plan for freedom, and not only for security, if for no other reason than that only freedom can make security secure.
The sacrifice of our personal liberty for security is and will forever be a false choice.
Every day, hundreds of thousands of men and women protect and serve, often putting their own lives at risk.
There are hard choices to be made in balancing the country's security and an individual's liberties. But it is a choice that has to be faced.
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
