Timely thought for the day...


"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch... Liberty is a well armed lamb contesting the vote."

Benjamin Franklin

    Love it, Bill. As I've matured (meaning, as a cheese, my rind has toughened, I've mellowed a bit, and I smell much more interesting than I once did) I've come to understand a bit more about what "democracy" is and what the United States stands for. I think our nation needs to be a little better educated as to what kind of society we are supposed to be. I'm sure many would be surprised at what the founding fathers thought of Democracy.

    Thanks Dave,

    I firmly believe that less power is coming from the people as laws and rules are changed to circumvent the people's will.
