BTW Mark, you wanna know what the workmen in yellow in the above photo of the capitol were discussing in Spanish/English, as they worked, when I walked past?
"YAHWEH"
On my honor that is the truth. I heard and saw it for myself.
HE IS Great! And in His provident wisdom, this great compromise - our America - continues...

A bit disillusioning, isn't it?
The founders were human politicians in a tough spot. Best we fix this and soon.

“Even worse is to exert massive fines until the owner is bankrupt with the arresting officer, judge, and legislator all belonging to the same agency.”
yeah, been there, done that. only it was a taking of a different color. i get to travel 500 miles to the state capital to beg permission from a regulatory troika for a chance to work for a living. i was too bewildered at the time to consider what they were doing to me. had i been a bit quicker (read articulate and then some) i could have made a point about double/triple jeopardy...even now, all i can do is laugh like hail...(no i am not laughing, not then, not now)...
but at the end of the day, everyone went home, it just took longer for me to get three. half a day/bout ten hours.

The more important lesson is that for these ‘anti-Federalists (a-F) [such as Patrick Henry] to remove themselves from the battle was a great misjudgment, reflecting the foibles and weakness of faith so common to us all.
We can no longer afford such a luxury.

Profound.
Patrick Henry should have been part of the process, just as FRiends should put egos and preferences aside and attempt to be judicious.
Sean Hannity calls it ‘having a seat at the table’. Handy term.

Glad I found it posted on the forum! Almost all of the articles on my sites were posted here on FR before putting them on my own. I don't want to stand accused of blog pimping and do appreciate the knowledge and opinion of the better-informed FReepers. Sadly, there are fewer of the latter these days. The screaming idiots have chased some of them off. Some have died.
