"You criticize the messengers of truth, ethics and common sense,"

No I don't.

"... but you seem to have no alternatives."

I frequently speak of alternatives. I am one of the few who looks beyond the forced choices that people like you offer... Your forced choice: <<<Bash everything republican and support someone you know is full of crap but represents the opposition, or agree with everything the current administration wants to do.>>

Alternative number 1: We are long overdue for the revamping of our government that Jefferson insisted must occur at a minumum of every 20 years or so. Societies are evolving at a much faster pace now than they were in his days but we are still very stuck in some antiquated systems and ideas. The reach our supremes have to go in stretching the constitution to apply to our current situation is laughable. There is nothing sacred about the document for crying out loud. Lets update it ... A constitutional convention would be a good starting place.

How does it feel knowing the Iraqis have a more up to date constitution than we do?
