Her name is Freedom. Most Americans don’t realize we have her, along with Lady Justice and Lady Liberty. The dome of our nation’s capital building is adorned with her, standing proud and firm. Lady Freedom holds an incredible amount of symbolism. Yet, she sits so high, that we barely see her. The white dome is easier to generalize as the dominating symbol of the capital building. I encourage you to get to know her.

And... with great interest, fatigue, bewilderment, and sadness, Which faction of the Republican Party will prevail?
