I think George W Bush was a terrible president. There, I said it.

Undemocratic Democrat Party continuing the anti-republic Republican Party's policies. They're both "Progressive".

“I predict future happiness for Americans, if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

• Thomas Jefferson

“When the people fear the government there is tyranny, when the government fears the people there is liberty.

• Thomas Jefferson

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Maybe it's time we empty Washington and replace the Constitution.

"Every constitution, then, and every law, naturally expires at the end of nineteen years. If it be enforced longer, it is an act of force, and not of right. It may be said, that the succeeding generation exercising, in fact, the power of repeal, this leaves them as free as if the constitution or law had been expressly limited to nineteen years only. In the first place, this objection admits the right, in proposing an equivalent. But the power of repeal is not an equivalent. It might be, indeed, if every form of government were so perfectly contrived, that the will of the majority could always be obtained, fairly and without impediment. But this is true of no form. The people cannot assemble themselves; their representation is unequal and vicious. Various checks are opposed to every legislative proposition. Factions get possession of the public councils, bribery corrupts them, personal interests lead them astray from the general interests of their constituents; and other impediments arise, so as to prove to every practical man, that a law of limited duration is much more manageable than one which needs a repeal."

• Thomas Jefferson

I hope they don't tell my wife about the porn.

What else would we expect? We willingly gave up our identities to corporations & marketing, then gleefully gave all away on Facebook, etc. No use in closing the door, the house already burnt down. We cheerfully lit the match.

"People who have nothing to hide hide nothing." That's what the critics of privacy rights used to say. Done with our permission, we begged for it.

Anyone who thinks they could hide their guns, with or without registration has another think coming!

I think it is amazing how many folks have this expectation of privacy while pursuing public activity.
