TV frightens me.
Tuesday, April 06, 2004

The news gets worse every day. It's little things...small oppressions, that added together create a picture that makes me want to hide. I'm not near far enough out in the wilderness, I think. I keep remembering my history...Rome, Venice, every great empire eventually grows top heavy and collapses in on itself. God save us, sometimes I worry about it happening here.

So. Before the Constitution collapses, or something:

I love Jesus. I'm not the best Christian, especially since I have a feeling that maybe really, really good Christians don't love vampires and dragons nearly as much as I do, but, well, I try. And see? I confessed. So that's got to help in the end. Any way. That is my freedom of religion.

People should have the freedom to get married no matter what their race, religion or gender. Also, we should concentrate on keeping jobs here **bulletin, there are North Americans who will gladly work for Indian rates**, as well as figure out ways to make sure that everyone has adequate housing, food, and prescription drug coverage, all while leaving the Social Security find alone. That is my freedom of Speech..

I was in doubt about the war in Iraq because I desperately wanted to believe that my government is good at heart. I was wrong. I now believe that George W. Bush took any excuse to go to war to please him's daddy. I believe he's responsible for the deaths of innocent soldiers who were just doing what they were ordered. I will not be voting for him. When I hot post and publish, this will become my freedom of press.

I believe that the government needs to explain exactly why they've decided that invading Iraq is more important than the stability of the nation. This is as close to my and right to petition the government for a redress of grievances as I can go.

I think that everyone who has a blog or home page should do this. American or not (though, I think I, being a yank, can get away with this a lot easier than other countries...) you should spread the word...reaffirm your rights, remind yourself that you have them and what they are. This is my freedom of assembly.
