But hey, we can't do much about it anyway except vote, get involved in groups (like this one Ron Paul’s Campaign For Liberty | The Revolution Continues), and/or go into office (like the site suggests). Honestly, you disgust me with your assumptions and because of those assumptions are no better than the people you rail against (it seems to me).
There are 330 million people in this country, I apologize if you feel like I'm targeting you in particular and your friends, but with that many people I have to generalize. The majority of people in this country, or at least those with the most influence are like what I described above. I drive down the street everyday and see those yellow ribbons on the bumpers on every third car I see, which makes me sick every time I see it. One case in particular I saw the same car with a bumper sticker that said, "Pray for Peace" and another sticker that said "Support Our Troops", I'm curious but do these people know what George Orwell was talking about with words like Double Think and Double Speak?
