Well, democracy and freedom shouldn't
be jokes. But wheh they are in the hands
of jerks, they are.

No wonder Bush is selected.


Haha, democracy and freedom are a joke. So funny.
You make me laugh. So funny.

The price of liberty is eternal vigilance. Vigilance
requires seriousness.

The great truth and great irony of that statement
is, I think, completely lost on you. Compared to
the vast majority of humans throughout the vast
majority of history you live a life of unsurpassed
freedom and luxury. Yet you devalue and degrade it.
Worse yet, you devalue and degrade the victories of
democracy and freedom over tyranny and oppression.

Depends on. If democracy and freedom have been
hijacked by some jerks, Then they become jokes.
