Sounded pretty good, didn't it? Well the minorities get heard louder these days...Respect was thrown out the window as disrespect emerged, and soon your democratic party would like to censor your talk tv and radio shows...Go to Michael Savage.com......I think people do still as long as your not being mean and hateful...your govt.? They'd like to shut you up and become socialist.

I believe that the author was declared an ENEMY COMBATANT and is now away at "camp" where he is receiving the badly needed water THERAPY that he has so desperately needed for the last 40-something years.
