From the article on the proposed Friedman Institute, RE: "As an opponent of the entire institute, rather than simply its name, Mr. Lincoln characterized himself on the extreme end of the opposition. He said he would like to see a research center “much more committed to free inquiry and a larger debate, and not just grinding the same ax sharper and sharper.”

I'll take Friedman's particular sharp ax to a whole barrel full of dull debated axes. We'd get some wood cut with that sucker! Now I'm seeing dull "bailout" axes swinging away at a debt log, and I sense no general confidence of seeing a hunk of kindling fly off anytime in the near future.
