The Constitution deserves every reverence we can give it. Just like the flag. So close to perfection. Such an example to the rest of the world. You must have found an old picture of it, one that doesn't have Bush's muddy footprints stomped all over it. We have had so many rights taken away in the name of "war" that we will never be the same. The war that has been waged against "terrorism" is never ending. Don't ever kid yourselves. What could ever mark "victory" against every wacko out there that hates us? So we will continue to give up our rights, freedom, and privacy until we crumble. The only glint of redemption I see is if we finally honestly got sick enough of watching our ever accelerating slide to total collapse and voted every last politician out of office. But you have to be strong to do that, and you have to have a better alternative waiting to take their place. Can it be done? Will my grand kids have to register to play in the public park? Will my grand kids be able to travel to another state without showing their "papers"? Will I have the freedom to check out a book from the library without it going into a government database? Will my kid have to be microchipped to be allowed into public school or work or to buy or sell? When will that document be treated with the awe, reverence and respect it deserves again?
