Reply #121: And THAT is what makes them so dangerous in a Democracy. [View All]

That idea works great in a feudal system where the King is the personal representative of God on Earth, but it's a serious threat to Democracy. We must preserve the right to criticize and challenge power. That's what "the vote" is all about. We can replace those in power if they no longer serve us. In the fundies' feudal world, criticizing Bush is like criticizing God. They are, thus, a threat to democracy itself.

The United States is a LIBERAL Country.
