The majority determines the rights for the majority. The minority gets the
option to accept the majority rule, or seek out a majority more compatible
to their liking somewhere else. No one is forcing the minority to just "sit
there and take it". They can roam the earth until they find some majority
that is as screwed-up as they are.

That's not how it works here. Rights are rights. If we did things
your way negroes would still have their own drinking fountains.


Hey, Hey, mind your temper there. There I go again frustrating you into
using profanity. There you go again with your invalid point of view that
asserts the Constitution and the Bill of Rights have been "trashed" merely
because we have mounted a reasonable and prudent offense and defense to an
enemy that has declared war against us. Our founding fathers would *demand*
that we defend ourselves and defeat our determined foe. For anyone to
assert otherwise is patently laughable and nutty.

deserves neither liberty nor safety." Benjamin Franklin

argument of tyrants. It is the creed of slaves." William Pitt in the
House of Commons November 18, 1783

Perhaps you can point out newest amendment to the constitution. I don't see
anything new since the 27th amendment. That means there has been no change.
Or, are you in full-blown, drama-queen, exaggeration mode?

If they were serious about protecting us



They *are* serious about protecting us. Are you really that much of a dolt?


they'd secure
chemical plants and nuclear stations, inspect every cargo container,
secure the porous borders, and seriously rethink foreign policy.


They are doing everything within reason when they are reasonably able to do
so. Demanding that the govt. secure the borders, chemical plants, nuclear
power stations and inspect every cargo container is unreasonable, and
logistically impossible to do to your (rickets) satisfaction. Although it
is not impossible to do given enough time and money, it is more likely that
the WOT will be over with before you could accomplish your laundry list of
whining points. In any event, you only demand it because it's the few scant
things you know full well *no-one* can feasibly do in short order -- not
even your hero. Rethinking foreign policy is something that is constantly
under review and is perpetually being adjusted and tweaked. However, your
ideas for foreign policy (if your posts in here are any hint) are something
that could be readily dismissed out of hand. So you can expect to suffer
much personal frustration when it comes to foreign policy. We will continue
to giggle at your expense.


You are again spouting official dogma.

The War on Terror is fake. It's only pupose is to help the Herbert
Bush Crime Family tighten its grip.
