1. it's OK to torture people to try to get them to confess to connections that don't exist.
2. the First Amendment only applies to Republicans -all others must stay in their designated "free-speech zones"
3. Government is BAAAAD! Therefore the only people we should hire to do the actual governing should be completely incapable of doing it -thus proving that Government is BAAAD!4. The United States Constitution is an inviolable and sacred document...unless you're reeeeeallly scared.
5. IOKIYAR (A.K.A. the 28th Amendment).
6.If a Republican president does it, it's privileged. If a Democratic president does it, it's criminal.
7. Individual liberties are nice, but are trumped by the "free market".
And finally:
8. It is your patriotic duty to question the actions of your government and demand accountability...unless you're a Democrat, or the actions in question happened more than 6 months ago.
Class dismissed.

It certainly has seemed this way for a very long time. I'm truly hopeful that Obama can turn this tide.
I became a US citizen myself in June, 2000. My first vote was in the Gore/Bush debacle. After wishing for years that I could vote, it was pretty discouraging to see my vote tossed about by the Supreme Court. November's election gave me real optimism for the first time in three decades.
