The benefits of healthy oppostional debate can only be had if both parties are sincerely interested. Your being bored simply does not allow you to add anything to the conversation. I hope you find more entertaining pastimes.

Working from the theory that if a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, then your vast volumes worth must be utter confusion, I here quote you, in hopes of finding some sense amidst the chatter:

1) Civics 101
John, of Wa.
You've got it backwards, my friend.
We citizens do not work for the government. The government is supposed to work for us.
We hire, and we can fire. We pay the salaries and the bills. We, like in you and me.
then
2) The opening paragraph you stated has no relevance to the original issue, which is that "WE" people work for the govt, not the other way around.

I am not certain if this apparent confusion is due to a writing style that perhaps stunts your ability to say what you really...

If you need reminding or remediaton please consult the opening lines of the document I'm sure you carry in your back pocket (next to your gun)that states:

The Constitution of the United States

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

What part of "We" you do NOT play, I can't say, but for myself, as a member, I am proud to do my job by voting, and glad to let those of "us" who are elected do theirs. What is your contribution?

I am on the side that fights all enemies of the state, foriegn and domestic. If you are a citizen then, as a part of the United States government, you should be too.

Your conditional support is really not that helpful. If you have the patience to wait out 3 or 7 years before offering something more substantive than complaints, good luck on that.

This hateful nonsense must cease! Please refocus to join the president and the people he serves in the battle against the real foes that threaten us rather than some phantom idea of an America weakened by dint of being represented by a black man: poor education, waning environment, sick economy, and lack of good health care, among others. God forbid a real enemy should attack; your contributions will be most unhelpful.
