14. I feel like all the fight has gone out of me ...
At least we'll be able to say, "We told you so" as Scalito signs away all of our civil liberties.

Je vais pratiquer mon francais ... C'est l'heure a departer ...

22. Don't ever give up!
"Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never--in nothing, great or small, large or petty--never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."

-Winston Churchill

16. Did Feinstein vote yay or nay?...
If Yay, then my vote's going to Cindy Sheehan when she runs!

If Nay, then maybe Cindy can run in another state where one of these traitors voted yay, so we can replace them!

28. It is not dead so long as it lives in your heart.
This just means we have more years of fighting to do, and it may become physically dangerous.

But I accept that danger, and I hope you do too.

26. Those that betrayed us must be made to pay!!!
Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official...

~Theodore Roosevelt

Only a free and unrestrained press can effectively expose deception in government.

~Hugo Black, Supreme Court Justice

40. We may have lost for now but we must not give up
We must fight this evil, this corruption, this rule by petty, small minded men who put the
clink of coins above the welfare of the American people. We shall not forget that we are
the majority, we are the heirs of the freedom given by our founders to this land. Let
these men clutch at the power they have stolen from us, we shall bring back fair elections,
1 voice equals 1 vote and they shall be swept away.
