I doubt there is enough black powder in all of America to blow up all of the idiotic bureaucrats, and other assorted, sordid socialism hangers on, now greedily feeding at the gooberment troughs.
Therefore, since the powder box (cartridge box) is too small, just as the Founders thought might happen, there is the soap box and the ballot box in November, 2008.
We are all on a journey. Whether towards a Republic or towards socialism is the question.
Time to seize the helm, as the “Ship of State”, so to speak, is wallowing without a helmsman.
The “New Media” is the soap box of our day. Indeed, it may prove to be the reason that the cartridge box will not be needed. Given the realities of a ‘wired world’, crooks & commies can be exposed easily and their evil deeds shown to all.
Now that cell phones are de facto camcorders, the evil deeds are easy to publish. And, with the Internet, something unconceivable to the Founders has occurred.
In the Founders era, they knew that “’freedom of the press’ belongs to he who owns one”. With the Internet and camcorders/cell phones, anyone can exercise and enjoy ‘freedom of the press’.
Extra! Extra! “Watch the Lil’ Bachelor’s Child”! “Watch What He Did”!

Why was the reconstructed Turtle launched in New York Harbor? Because the first one was launched there! ! !
Please note that the first launch was a failure, as was this one. BUT, in both cases, fear was created by the failure.
Who says history does not repeat if we don’t learn from it.
Here’s a link of interest, especially as th sub project came from an individual, and the project was not ‘supported’ by a huge Federal grant:

Being ABC News, you can count on something in the story to be incorrect. In this instance, the headline is incorrect. The Turtle was built in 1776, not 1775.
LOL. Good story and great thread comments! Gotta love FReepers. :-)
It means he’s interested in homeless squatters sticking it to The Man.
