You said it, not me!
Funny how that's always the reply from people who can't defend their blind loyalty to the party.
But, "schweetie," you're the one who doesn't want to be here.
This is MY Country, too, bubba and, unless I woke up in Russia this morning, I can still, at least, SAY what I want and do what I can to effect a change without being shot for it.
You're safe in Russia today; go try it in Iraq.
Give it time, however, and I may not be able to say what with 'hate-crimes'...
Oh! And now you think Bush signed the "hate crimes" bill in Texas?
I don't think so. I'd just like for those who are subverting this Country and standing everything it's every stood for that was sane and decent on its head to quit dragging the whole Country into these situations with them. The WTC wasn't attacked because somebody wanted to take away our Freedom. It wasn't freedom that was attacked (at least not by any 'terrorists'), it was the policians interventionist, empire building policies that were 'attacked' and while many here are busy deriding me for saying so, the power-elite in DC are busy making sure that you all have tent-cities (with AC, of course) to be herded into when the next "attack" (biological or nuclear) happens where you and your family can be given innoculations against who knows what whether you want them or not and where you can be locked up as a terrorist if you try to resist. Don't take my word for it (not that I think you would...). Try looking up all the new powers that FEMA has been granted lately under the watchful eye of the Bush administration. We used to talk about such things here on FR but I guess since "our" man's in the White House - some folks no longer believe it necessary to keep up with the goings-on in Washington. More's the pity. Gotta run - time to get back to work.
