A Declaration Of Independence

At the League of Extraordinary Coots, there has been an ongoing discussion about how Americans cried out in their horror and pain at 9/11 and it was the quaking fear of the populace that led to the quaint excesses of the Bush Administration, excesses such as suspension of habeas corpus and torture. Long, long, long story short: If protection means a Royal Authoritarian Executive who delves into every aspect of our lives, we reject it. We got guns. We got good people. We'll protect ourselves! We will not give up our freedom for the dubious protection of a rapacious Neo-Monarchy!
