Guest guest Posted October 6, 2002 Report Share Posted October 6, 2002 I was, of course, but joshing. And on behalf of all Americans, all of whom came from elsewhere as well somewhere in their family history, let me apologize for all that paperwork. It's necessary, to keep the control freaks busy so they don't do any real harm. Well, most of the time.

It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar.” --Julius Caesar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, my husband can now VOTE. Hurray also. We agree on political matters, so - unlike a lot of married couples - our votes won't cancel each other's out. Pat -- Pat Meadows Books, books! Low prices.
