Thomas Jefferson foresaw the destruction that would come on this republic because of the compromise on slavery decades before that destruction was wrought:

"God who gave us life gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that his justice cannot sleep forever...Nothing is more certainly written in the book of fate than that these people are to be free." -- Thomas Jefferson

So, the question is, just how much destruction are you willing to heap on your children and grandchildren in the name of political expedience?

Have you asked the same question of yourself (with regard to not voting against obama)?
