That is the past. Now, we need to do better.
We are all Citizens of the United States. The idea that we owed loyalty to a Party or to the jingoistic and power serving icons constructed to distract us from our Founding vision refuted the real loyalty we owe to that unrealized dream.
When you look to the White House, Congress, or the Supreme Court for relief remember you are giving them power they have always abused.
America became the voice that called to those who hungered for freedom and opportunity not because of government but because through the acts of individuals, using the opportunities a partial freedom created, individuals realized some small part of that original vision despite government - and only here had that vision been accessible to everyone.
As Americans and as individuals we need to take action. We need a common agenda we can carry out as individuals, choosing freedom and making our own communities true to the original vision. Those means are in our hands right now.
Get off the grids. Examine who profits when you continue to use the technologies owned and controlled by those Bush acknowledged as his "Core Constituents." The mega corporations bleed us from every part of our lives. You can change that. Technologies to go off grid are available now and more are on the way. Turn off the faucet and let them find their own water.
Look at your own community. You can make it better, make it work as people helping each other. And finally, build unity. Forget party politics. That is a game that has played into their hands and the time for playing their games is over.
We can and will hold them accountable. Everything they have done makes them liable. It is time Ann Coulter had to get an honest job, maybe working at MacDonald's handing out Big Macs; let her look into eyes that see her for what she is. Let John Fund have a place slinging fries; Karl Rove and company can take clean up duty or staff the drive through line. And then George W. Bush and family can do the pick up duty outside. Prison is too good for them For once in their lives let them understand.
America, an idea whose time is coming - as soon as we reboot the system.
