The breaking of laws does not negate their validity and authority.

The problem lies with the writers of unconstitutional legislation, and the lack of public will to hold legislators accountable.
Truer words have never been spoken.
"If we bring not the good courage of minds covetous of truth, and truth only, prepared to hear all things, and decide upon all things, according to evidence, we should do more wisely to sit down contented in ignorance, than to bestir ourselves only to reap disappointment."

One wonders where these people were during the attacks on the Constitution by former Vice President Dick Cheney and his gang.

I was not yet familiar with this site.

I opposed, and continue to oppose the Patriot Act, as well as the war against Iraq.

Ironically, I voted for Bush because he was what I percieved as the less awful candidate.

It is still unclear to me if a differnet choice would have turned out very differently.

I was referring to the people in the NY Times article.

Zombies never rebel against their master.
Legalize Marijuana,I need something to calm me down after I watch Fox News.

If Jesus was alive today,Republicans would call him gay and Democrats would put him on food stamps.

As a formost expert on Zombie matters, and anything pertaining to zombies.
They have no masters
They do what they want
I am the Sheep Dog.

Original zombies are revived from wizards.therefore they have master who controls them.

Hollywood zombies are on their own,which is total BS.
Then again in Hollywood,Dracula doesnt like garlic and afraid of cross.

I have seen a recent political documentary (Zombieland) and can assure you; Zombies are autonomous.

ALWAYS remember: Double Tap!

I've always wondered if Dracula would recoil from a Star of David or a Mandala too?
When all else fails hug the dog.

Dracula (Real One TM) was devoted Christian (I doubt Jesus would approve his "Christianity") and was apparently killed by Muslim (his head got cut).
I am sure he as all Romanians loved garlic more then anything.
Now its possible you could stop him with holly water (or any water) considering they didn't bath and like cats  avoided water at any cost.

Speaking of the brain dead and blood suckers, how do we rid oursleves of the Fed without major economic calamity?

jandar

Killing the Fed would be hard. They have too much power, and many are indebted to them from both parties.

Ron Paul is pushing it.
Even Dem's favorite new son Alan Grayson is behind auditing the Fed.

To be honest, not to sound like a conspiracy nut, but I would not be surprised to see a vocal advocate of abolishing the Fed die a mysterious death. Too much money.

We should be on the gold reserve.

Yes IMHO we should be on a gold standard. The world was on a gold and silver as well as copper for 10,000 years and it worked. there are those that say we do not have enough gold and silver to cover the amount of money in circulation. The amount of gold is irrelevant. gold is currently at about $1100 an ounce. if you increase that to for example to $22,000 an ounce there would be enough gold to cover our money. and we might have enough gold at the corrected price to wipe out our national dept.

BTW $22,000 is just a number to illustrate that the amount of gold in irrelevant

Most "money" is just bookkeeping entries anyway.  When you pay your credit card bill with a check, no bills or coins ever change hands anywhere.  Gold is the chair you sit in when the music stops.

That is a great analogy DW. I've not heard it put in those terms before, but it is spot on.

Money = Musical Chairs.
