I'm always hearing that Republicans are much better and spending our money than Democrats, and that Democrats don't have a clue how to get us closer to getting rid of our national debt. Just take a look, and then tell me with a straight face that you still believe the two sides are really that easy to stereotype.

Can he, then, be trusted with the government of others? Or have we found angels in the forms of kings to govern him? Let history answer this question. 07/31/05 :: Quote :: Thomas JeffersonYet it is easy to foresee, from the nature of things, that the encroachments of the State governments will tend to an excess of liberty which will correct itself, while those of the General Government will tend to monarchy, which will fortify itself from day to day. 07/08/05 :: Quote :: GhandiI believe that no government can exist for a single moment without the co-operation of the people, willing or forced, and if people suddenly withdraw their co-operation in every detail, the government will come to a standstill. 07/05/03 :: Reference :: (link) :: U.S. Republican Party Platform (2000)07/05/03 :: Reference :: (link) :: U.S. Green Party Platform (current)07/05/03 :: Reference :: (link) :: U.S. Democratic Party Platform (2000)06/30/03 :: Article :: Please enter your date of birth and gender :: Fighting for individuality in a world that doesn't care06/02/04 :: Quote :: Lao-TzuA leader is best when people barely know that he exists.
Less good when they obey and acclaim him.
Worse when they fear and despise him.
Fail to honor people, and they fail to honor you.
But of a good leader, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled,
they will say, "We did this ourselves."
