Thomas Jefferson
 

"Our rulers will become corrupt, our people careless... the time
for fixing every essential right on a legal basis is [now] while our
rulers are honest, and ourselves united. From the conclusion of
this war we shall be going downhill. It will not then be necessary
to resort every moment to the people for support.

They will be forgotten, therefore, and their rights disregarded.
They will forget themselves, but in the sole faculty of making
money, and will never think of uniting to effect a due respect for
their rights.

The shackles, therefore, which shall not be knocked off at the
conclusion of this war, will remain on us long, will be made
heavier and heavier, till our rights shall revive or expire in a
convulsion."

- Thomas Jefferson

Oretty scary premonition....maybe with modern science we could clone those

Not a premonition at all. it was the argument for writing the
constitution you still have.

Shut up. You have no business quoting someone who was actually
intelligent, unlike you.

The possibility is faced daily since inception of the weapon.

Moscow???.... a bit dated I think.

I'd be worried about your new "friends" you've made in the Arab world.
"Moscow" is selling... the Arabs are "buying".... you were busy navel
gazing when they flew the planes into the towers.... what have you learned
from that?? Nothing! The person who instigated it is still free. You've
managed to create a whole new generation of fanatics! Everytime you try to
play these guys for your own benefit they turn on you.

Embedded Journalists, poor supply lines and shoddy military strategy, no
comprehension of your foes, no plans for post conquest,....... total
military idiocy from a nation that has the power but not the intelligence to
achieve much greater goals.

Idiocy bordering on lunacy is what you've managed to date.... no
objectives, no plan, no common sense.

You can say it. Goldwater could say it. Crantz is an idiot and a fascist.
He should keep his mouth shut.
