Are we a nation of laws, or a cult of personality?

We can't evade this question forever. The answer's heading toward us like an out-of-control freight train.

That is essentially the left vs right political fight.

Conservatives favor a nation of laws where all are treated equally under the law, and succeed and fail by best “playing” under those rules.

Leftists despise fixed rules in favor of “adjusting” outcomes based on the superior wisdom of their elite.

Are we a nation of laws, or
... a corrupt police state where those in power use it to extort, destroy, and loot?

What does the GM bankruptcy say?

What does Ed Rendell's pride say?

The reign of the illegal President Obama lasts while the other flocks of vultures think there will be plenty of carrion left for them.

I had a sealed stamp birth certificate my mother gave when I was twelve rejected as a legitimate document to withdraw an annuity.

Luckily, 20$ and a half hour of wasted time got me the new sealed stamp “long form” that will hopefully now be considered legitimate.

This is a black hole issue that can be resolved in a moment, but it is not being resolved with specific purpose.

Consider the purpose and its direction, not the document.

Are we a nation of laws, or a cult of personality?

Well, that depends...
Are you a democrat?
Are you black?

Some idiot is going to post this here so I should beat them to the punch. “If Obama is removed then we are stuck with Biden.” Geez. Anything is better.

Sadly America is ruled by the cult of personality.

The answer's heading toward us like an out-of-control freight train.

And Obama probably thinks the light at the end of the tunnel is a giant disco ball, at a party being thrown in his honor.
