This government 'CUT' the Constitution to shreds, and 'RAN' to war...
...
There is a cancer in Americas political body. And it is not benign. It is eating us alive from the inside out. Remaining as we are, because 'we can't let our soldiers deaths be in vain'- is akin to refusing to undergo chemo, because then all the body parts we'd lost to disease, would have been 'lost in vain'.
It has to stop- now.

What is 'important'? our ego? our pride?

Gandhi says:"Unselfishness preserves life, whereas love of the ego kills it."
The bible says:"Pride goeth before a fall"

bush says: "The interesting thing about being president is you don't have to explain yourself to anybody."

Time to 'cut it out' and leave corporations and lobbyists out of the 'running' of our country.
Its time to stand up. While we still can.

2. Good, but the Bible actually says,
"Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall."

3. Thanks- you're right, I would edit
my post to fix this, but the time has expired.
Your corrected quote is even better than my mis-quote.

Thanks again,
blu
