Well said
People digging in their heels and telling the government to bugger off is what made America great. The Declaration of Independence not only described to England exactly why we were telling them to bugger off, it laid out the moral and philosophical foundations for why it was right and proper under the right circumstances for a people to tell ANY government to bugger off.
I hope you'll remember that next time your knee starts twitching with the overpowering urge to call those who oppose Bush "traitors". I call 'em "patriots".
In fact, I think I'll bookmark it.
