Buy Monsanto* seeds for as long as you want, but I'd much rather stick to the stuff that hasn't been genetically altered to produce more and nourish less. :)

Have you ever read some of the letters that our founding fathers wrote to each other? They often profoundly disagreed with one another, but they also often met with each other to have tea and discuss things other than politics.

losdavos, respect is not the same thing as consent. We agree or disagree with someone's ideas based on what we hold true ourselves. But we respect other people for absolutely no other reason than that they ARE other people. And I suggest YOU never forget THAT . . . for your own sake.

Ha ha, well of course he can!

Surely you didn't think his unparalleled leadership ability and magnificent economic savy were the only reasons we elected him did you?

I don't think she was denying it. I think she was agreeing with the idea that many people voted for Obama based solely on the color of his skin.

As I'm sure you know, it's one thing to disagree, and it's another to slander.

If you criticized the administration (assuming you're talking about the Bush administration) in a firm yet respectful way then you had every right to, and, speaking generally here, I'd say the biggest Bush supporters in the world would admit that. What so many people got upset about though wasn't the disagreement with "authority," but the disrespect of it. Bush, whether you agreed with his policies or not, was talked about and treated like a dog, and probably will be for a long time. No one should be viewed or spoken of that way.

I have an ever so slight problem with the fourth principle. If the parents are the absolute authority, then who's to say that a parent is wrong for "disciplining" his child by beating him?

I know that's not what it means, and I agree that the government has no place to tell a parent how to raise their children, but the wording is a little off. I'm not so prissy as to get all flustered about that, but if you get technical about it . . . I'm just saying.

Thoughts?

When I was in high school and studying the founding of America and Federalists versus the antifederalists I was always blown away by the people who supported the (British) crown in spite of their own welfare. How could they submit themselves to a ruler who has no true claim on their money or their lives?

It makes more sense now that the EXACT SAME THING is happening WITHIN our own country. The government wants more and more power. How can we sit by and let them say "Well, yeah you can protest, but you have to give us money before you start, thereby defeating your very purpose." How stupid.

People, then and now, support the "authority" because they are blind to what it can truly do. Plus side -- as Obama's leftist policies become more apparent, more people will wake up and go against them. Down side -- how long WILL it take for enough people to wake up to get rid of the corruption in the government? The longer we wait, the more the power the government has, and the more power the government has the more helpless the people become. Scary.
