My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd Like to Meet: Cool, non-judgmental folks who comprehend the following quotes :"I wish it were possible to obtain a single amendment to our Constitution - taking from the Federal government their power of borrowing." --Thomas Jefferson"We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. When the loyal opposition dies, I think the soul of America dies with it." -- Murrow"During times of war, hatred becomes quite respectable, even though it has to masquerade often under the guise of patriotism." --Thurman"When a whole nation is roaring Patriotism at the top of its voice, I am fain to explore the cleanness of its hands and the purity of its heart." --Emerson"To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Roosevelt"An imbalance between rich and poor is the oldest and most fatal ailment of all republics." --Plato"The death of democracy is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It will be a slow extinction from apathy, indifference, and undernourishment."--Hutchins
