Vigilance
I ran across this quote while perusing another blog this evening. With this administration's record and continuing usurping of our constitution, I think we would all be wise to heed it's message.
"When liberty is taken away by force it can be restored by force. When it is relinquished voluntarily by default it can never be recovered."
-Dorothy Thompson, American newspaper columnist (1894-1961)
The last time we had a "King George", our new democracy was the result. No less may be at stake 230 years later. Bush beleives he is truly above the law and can do absolutely anything he pleases. What's next? After he stacks the Supreme Court with his lackies, anything is possible. A "somewhat balanced" court gave him his presidency in 2000. Imagine what a tilted one could do. . .repeal the two term limit? Stack the 2006 and 2008 elections to retain a lock on power?
Pay VERY close attention. . .speak out. . .and take action when necesary.
