It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.

To my surprise...

"You are most like General Robert E. Lee, arguably the most respected figure of the war. Despite an opposition to secession and slavery, Lee chose to fight for his home state of Virginia at the start of the civil war. When he was promoted to command the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia in 1862, he proved himself an excellent strategist and a master of military tactics. Lee was famous for his regal bearing and his absolute morals, which inspired fanatical loyalty in his men. He died in 1870 at the age of 63."
The most shocking fact about war is that its victims and its instruments are individual human beings, and that these individual beings are condemned by the monstrous conventions of politics to murder or be murdered in quarrels not their own. Aldous Huxley

On a good day, our legislature has the prestige of a drunk urinating on a wall at 4am and getting most of it on his shoe. On a good day  ::) Steelgrave

It's kind of silly to investigate whether or not a Clinton is lying. That's sort of like investigating why the sky is blue. Banzai_Cat
