Wow... you're still here, and posting a little bit... that's more grit than most disruptors show. How about answering a few substantive questions, if you would.

First, what happened on November 19th to get you so sad? (What year, BTW?)
Second, what makes the President and "Cheney on down" qualify as "evil"? Have they barbecued any children (a la Reno)? Have they sold nuclear reactors to militant nations like North Korea? Have they used mustard gas against American citizens (a la Saddam)? (HINT: Pick the right issues, and you'll find many FReepers agreeing with you... but those issues are probably WAY too far to the Right for you to bring up)
Third, did you forget to mention the we beat the Soviet Union without firing a shot thanks to the brilliance of Ronald Reagan (outspending them on weapons build-ups rather than making them out-bleed us on the battlefield)
Fourth, specifically what Liberties do you see as now "lost"? If you wanted to run with that "lost Liberty" idea, you'll find many supporters here. As far as I'm concerned, Amendments #2, 4, 9, and 10 are all in serious danger, if not gone. The 16th basically negates the 13th (involuntary servitude). Give it a shot, you might get lucky!
Fifth, why do you think the Democrats have "collapsed"? Last I saw, they still had more than 45% of the elected offices nationwide. You are aware, aren't you, that the GOP was in the very position the Dems are now in for most of the 20th Century, and they survived it just fine, thankyouverymuch.
Finally, "those traitor Democrats" you refer to (is that the Nov. 19th reference?) are nothing new. While Jim Jeffords (who I notice you don't mention as a traitor) was one of the rare GOP-to-Dem switchers, most of the switches in the past century have been Dem-to-GOP... care to venture some guesses why this is?

BTW, liberals are not automatically banned here. Show some intelligence in your responses, and a willingness to debate honestly and politely and you might educate us silly Right-wingers.

Of course, you're already getting flamed heavily so avoiding rudeness can be demanding... I'm just saying that, if you want, you are invited to stick around and continue posting your thoughts... your Democratic laments are most welcome, as you can see! ;^)
