But to have to depend on the Right for what the Left wouldn't do is an evil compromise. Still, I agree with both of you. But, also know that you both know the cautions about what went on with start of WWI...leading to WWII.

Let's hope that things end differently this time and this is just an evolution after past mistakes. I believe there are still some good folks "behind the scenes" who are working to try to correct these mistakes. For example...I think Snowden had help from some in the Intelligence Community who were as horrified as Snowden was and those Whistleblowers before as to what was happening with this very far over reach into our civil liberties of the people. There are "people of conscience" still in our Government and out there all across America. They just need leaders who will help them and what we have as leaders is the Whistleblowers who are sounding...enough is enough. They are courageous and maybe down the road they can cut through the crap of the stuff we deal with in the "MSM/Military/Industrial/Media/Wall Street Complex to "behind the scenes work to making the reforms needed...against all odds. Changing Opinions is what has to happen. I just hope we don't get to the point where it all crashes and burns before the reforms can be made by those diligently working in the "shadows."
