now that justice stevens is retiring, all other justices, plus the new nominee, have schooled, taught and/or administered at harvard and/or yale.  all of them!  look it up.

1) there is no difference between the democrats and the republicans, the demopublicans. whichever party is in power we get more intervention, foreign and domestic.  make no mistake, central power (government, banking media) intervention had alot to do with our current financial and economic problems.

2) we have been moving left as a country for decades, most times slowly (ie frog in pot on stove) and sometimes quickly (new deal, great society, now).

as always, we must define our terms, keep it simple:

liberal: more government (taxes, spending, entitlements, DEBT, rules, etc.)

conservative:  less government

the choices: anarchy, democracy, republic, oligarchy, dictatorship

the word 'democracy' does NOT appear at all in the declaration of independence, the bill of rights, or the consitution of the united states of america.  not one time!

james madison, the father of the constitution, said that democracy is dangerous and we should not have it.

ben franklin, when asked what kind of government we have, replied "a republic, if you can keep it"

yet, most people have been told and taught that we are a democracy, we have always been a democracy, and that it is not only good, but needs to be exported around the world.

someone please explain me
