MISCELLANY

My Message to Congress As Part of Moveon.org Petition to Investigate Vote Tampering

"It's supposed to be a democracy in the United States and if vote tampering is intentional and systemic, then those who are behind it are traitors who are trashing what should be our nation's most sacred value. Please do your job and investigate so that our democracy can be protected from tyranny."

Quote Sent By A Friend in these Troubled Times

"A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over,
their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight,
restore their government to its true principles.
"It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and
incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public
debt.
"If the game runs sometimes against us at home we must have patience till
luck turns, and then we shall have an opportunity of winning back the
principles we have lost, for this is a game where principles are at
stake."
-- Thomas Jefferson, in a letter of 1798, after the passage of the Sedition
Act.

Thanks for reading in England, S! :-)

Jamie Foxx. Best Actor Oscar. Enough said. I will be at the Kodak Theater after the Oscars with my trashcan ready to crash through the window if it doesn't happen.

But for now, Peace.
