[QUOTE="Charlie V, post: 29021115, member: 91615"] Um, I think that's an overstatement. I believe this is why the American Republic, our Democracy is ultimately flawed and imperfect. However, despite being often extremely stressed to my maximum tolerance over the outrageous behavior of my government, I maintain my faith in my nation. I believe in the Spirit of '76. I believe in that document, the Declaration of Independance, despite its flaws, and in the Consitution and especially, the Bill of Rights. I believe these things will survive the flaws and the corruption, and the future will continue to bring us good and bad governments, we will have our future Warren Hardings and George W Bush's and we will have our future Franklin Roosevelts and Abraham Lincolns and John F Kennedys. But no matter how any of us feels about the policies of all these fellows, [B]I'm[/B] always going to hold these truths to be self-evident, as Jefferson did, and will always believe in the things that "We the People" ordained and established in in our preamble, and I'll not call those a failure until there's not one person left who holds those truths to be self-evident, and no George W Bush and no Republican or Democrat in Congress or the White House will ever take that away from me.
