I almost wish you hadn't "pinged" me to see this. I have tried so hard not to slip down the slippery slope from skepticism into cynicism. It's getting harder to listen to those who "feel" we shouldn't "hate" our government and continue to support the "democratic process" in our formerly "free republic!"

The Judicial Branch was the last refuge of the individual under attack by "Mobocracy" (the tyranny of the majority), now even that is lost... desperately sad!

I know what you mean. As a farmer... I am becoming more and more upset by these things. When I first started to hear about them, I got mad. I wrote letters. I went to rallys. I posted here on FR so that others would learn. I still do those things... but with a heavier heart and with more tears. Every time I do a self search and see an article like this, my heart sinks into my stomache.

However... Thanks for the heads up brityank. As much as it hurts, I want to know about these things. Looking away and pretending I don't know, will only make for one less voice in our fight. For the wrong thing to do is nothing.
