Alan Gottlieb - Personal

Personal

He was born a first child to Seymour and Sherry Gottlieb on May 2, 1947 in Los Angeles. Gottlieb graduated from the University of Tennessee in the summer of 1971, after a five year course, with a degree in nuclear engineering. He has also attended the Institute on Comparative Political & Economic Systems at Georgetown University. "I am," he says, "the premiere anti-communist, free-enterprise, laissez-faire capitalist."

Gottlieb is a staunch defender of gun rights -- most of his 19 books expound upon the subject -- and a fervent opponent of positions to left of his beliefs. For example, he published recently in the blog Red State Advocacy, "Elena Kagan's lifetime of actions lay bare a clear intention to subvert our Constitution and its founding principles, thereby rendering her UNFIT FOR DUTY as a Supreme Court Justice ."

Gottlieb is an avid collector of old handguns and postage stamps.

Famous quotes containing the word personal:

    Bondage is the life of personality, and for bondage the personal self will fight with tireless resourcefulness and the most stubborn cunning.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    Healthy parenting is nothing if not a process of empowerment. As we help to raise our children’s self-esteem, we also increase their personal power. When we encourage them to be confident, self-reliant, self-directed, and responsible individuals, we are giving them power.
    Louise Hart (20th century)

    The primary imperative for women who intend to assume a meaningful and decisive role in today’s social change is to begin to perceive themselves as having an identity and personal integrity that has as strong a claim for being preserved intact as that of any other individual or group.
    Margaret Adams (b. 1916)
