In a democratic republic, at least.

We are a representative republic, and not a steenkin European style Democracy.

I'm afraid we have lost our way and if we do not reestablish what has worked so well for 200+ years, we will not survive what is to come.

Governance via poll is very dangerous and likely fatal.

This country is officially in serious trouble.

Governance via poll is very dangerous and likely fatal.

But a government that sells out its sovereignty and doesn't enforce its borders is even more deadly.

I agree.

Our Republican Congress is now officially a poll-driven, fact-devoid, hysteria based body. Not to mention the fact that their word (the 45 day wait period) means absolutely nothing.

I am now officially ashamed of the Republican party.

No kiddin'? That was my point. Other than that brain fart I agree with you.
