<<despise what bush and cheney did and think both should be in jail.>>
Agreed, but obviously they're not going anytime soon.

<<bush ended the concept of inalienable rights - all big brother needs to do is to create a false flag event>>
He wasn't the first. Got Tonkin? Remember the Maine?

<<whole point of america was that government didn't grant right - a higher power did>>
Strange theology. Why did this higher power single out a few folks on the coast of a continent they were conquering from the "Indians", and why did this power condone slavery? Nope, it's "we the people" who claim and maintain the rights, and it's not just a U.S. phenomenon.

<<controlled media control your paradigm>>
No, what controls my paradigm is what's out there in front of me. Two parties is not near enough, but until we rewrite the Constitution to go to some sort of Parliamentary system, and we abolish brib-...campaign contributions. It ain't gonna change - not in my lifetime.

I asked you once, why don't you run for something

If you feel as strongly as you do you need to either get active politically (no, posting stuff on line doesn't count), or you need to break something.
