Well that's just it since all government is people. I wish I could share Sam's blind faith in people, but I'm more of the Reagan mindset: "trust but verify". I don't trust people, I trust process. This president has gone to extrodinary lengths to consolidate executive power. Example: he's attempting to remove the judical branch's check in the wiretapping case. This is an attempt to end run the process. Once there's no process then all you've got left is trust in people and that's not enough for me no matter how much I worship the President. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:193651 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
