When you get a disease and you don't treat it and hope it just goes away...
Edited on Fri Jul-20-07 08:02 AM by Hubert Flottz
it usually gets worse instead of better. In many cases if the sick person had gone looking for a cure in time, he may have saved himself from a permanent disability, due to the infection and perhaps in some extreme cases even saved himself from death.

The Founders of our country brilliantly saw far enough ahead and they provided us with a sure fire cure for what is making this country so very sick to the core. Congress needs to buck up and do it's job before it's too late. Protect and defend America like they promised us they would do and impeach Dick Cheney and George Bush before democracy, freedom and liberty die in America.

A rigged ballot box can't cure America...it's up to congress to do their job.

What you usually end up with is a 6x2 ft piece of land.

3. Looks like our 6x2 piece of earth will be scorched if they do nothing.

If Bush and Cheney can't own the country they mean to destroy it, IMHO.

Edit...I'm not saying they are Nazis, but they do act like the Nazis!

7. I'm afraid that if a cure is not found for this malady we face today,
very soon, that we will all be crying our eyes out for our stone cold dead democracy. At that point any cure will be too late! "We" will have become "Them" and the "terrorists" from within will have indeed won. Stick a fork in Old Glory...beacon of freedom and liberty.

6. I like your point
but not your analogy.

Often, if you get sick and do nothing, your body will heal itself.

8. A lot of people have passed on, while waiting for their bodies to
cure themselves. Faith based medicine is not very dependable.
