As a "child of the Cold War," recalling how the desire for freedom and the chance to go forward without some third party holding people back brought down the Berlin wall and defeated communism, I am reflecting that if it weren't for the distraction of a terrorist attack on the US--and the delay in dealing with terrorism forty years overdue!--our attention would not have been so severely detained from another urgent threat to America--the ever increasing expansion of our government.

For over 80 years, our government has grown like a shadow, like the Angel of Death that sends suffocating tendrils into the doors of our homes, which we have cracked open to allow their serpentine entry.

The Statest doesn't get it. He truly believes "equality" is a word in the Constitution, separate from any other concept, in and of itself the reason d'etre for why we are here; thus giving him purpose to undermine our liberties while we stand transfixed, pondering on the lack of them in foreign houses.

So, America, if we have no purpose other than defending what brought us to our uniqueness over two centuries ago, let us focus on that; for those who commit one constitutional fraud after another upon us are in desperate need of our attention NOW!
