I can’t take credit for the quote, but I instantly noted the colors of the flags carried by the soldiers. They aren’t the Russian flag and they only represent one of the flag’s colors.
I'm sorry that this essay isn't perfect, a lot of grammar problems, I'm sure, but I had to post it.
A breaking article off of Free Republics site reports that a majority of the McCain Finegold Bill (2002) has been upheld by the Supreme Court. Once again, legislation is layered upon legislation. Of course this all stems from our definition of Democracy, but I see a paradox. I am also not sure why President Bush signed this legislation, maybe to keep power, maybe to be able to get along better with Democrats, or maybe to remove a potential issue that the Democratic party would have with him by not signing it. I only hope that President Bush was hoping that the Supreme Court would strike the bill down. Im simply perplexed, not angry with Bushs decision, and maybe a little disappointed too. The paradox I see is with our countrys actions not being consistent with our attitudes. We have the attitude that the liberty, the very freedom of speech is sacred. Even though it is clear that libel and slander are clear limits, we pass this bill clearly and unjustly limiting our free speech. For better or worse, the Court has expanded Federal power, the Court has expanded the Courts power, but for worse, the Court has taken a step in a lethal and undermining direction.
