That last line struck me as funny since it conjures up images of parents running around trying to repeal drunk driving laws, or texting while driving laws, etc. I mean after all, those parents are just trying to protect their children should their sweet little angels to do something illegal just like Mrs. Corry of Colorado.

While most people would argue that she is well within her rights to fight a blatantly unjust law because driving drunk actually kills people and smoking a little pot never hurt anyone, the point I'm trying to make is that teaching your children the difference between inalienable rights and self-perceived rights is a much better place to start for lasting change in our society.

So, I'm thinking either our tax code is so messed up that everyone is a tax cheat, or anyone making over a certain amount just plain isn't paying their share.

It's no wonder they're back peddling. When you act like your stimulus bill will work miracles, you'd better believe the uneducated masses will think that was well.

But, at least, he's understands what will happen if his bill fails to do much: "Now, look, I won't lie to you, If it turns out that a few years from now people don't feel like the economy's turned around, that we're still having problems, that folks are still unemployed, that our health-care system's not more efficient, then, you know, you guys won't applaud me the next time I come down here."
