but we were certainly an empire before that.

But i think it is fair to say that we have become a totalitarian state since then, though some argue it began when the Berlin wall fell, and the gov had no more use for the mask.

But I still believe that we can win, until they official invalidate the bill of rights, at least they still pay it lip service, so we can use that.

However, we are getting close to that day when they will no longer even do that.

Shoot, I have even seen DUers use the infamous chimp quote that it was just a "piece of paper" during this whole privacy pirates revelations.
