Good morning, Pat, rdavis84, Fred Mertz

In truth, the Founding Fathers did all they could. You can't make something "foolproof" because fools are just so darned ingenuous. Our country's been run by ingenuous fools in congress for so long that they've managed to chip away at all the protections written into the Constitution. The Constitution as written and the Constitution as currently interpreted are two entirely different documents.

As if that weren't bad enough, all the ingenuous fools running the media promote those causes that corrode our freedoms. To the media, only the 1st Amendment is sacrosanct, and they lack respect even for that one unless it applies to their own handiwork.

Finally, the ingenuous fools that allow themselves to be influenced by a corrupt media continually elect corrupt leaders. The "general public" is too lazy to do their own research, and blindly accept media reports as truth and evidence--and often, even here on Free Republic, will quote them as though from on High.

Count the corrupted systems--wait, no, it would be far quicker to count those that are uncorrupted. Let's see. There's....

um...

er....

uhhh....

Never mind.
