Wha's frightening about it Lurker?

Is it "government of the people, by the people, for the people" or is it government by your ideology?

Try reading the document that contains these words, Luis:

We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Your line came from a speech by a President.

Mine came from what was intended to be the rulebook for that government you alluded to.

My ideology comes from the rest of the document I quoted in part. You might want to drop a few copies of it off at your local Republican HQ because it's painfully obvious that none of them have actually read the damned thing.
