Now the people have been onto the streets, that felt death shudder through their bones and other families have felt the shudder, through loved ones on distant streets. The architects of death listen to their private grieving consolations, for the sons and daughters who will never return now. Another war to justify looms large on a ever darkening and shameful horizon for good people, living under imperial rule. http://www.boston.com/news/nation/washington/articles/2006/04/30/bush_challenges_hundreds_of_laws/?p1=MEWell_Pos1[URL=http://www.nytimes.com/2006/04/30/nyregion/30protest.html?_r=1 &oref=slogin]http://www.nytimes.com/2006/04/30/nyregion/30protest.html?_r=1&oref=slogin[/URL] ''As the deer pants for steams of water, so my soul pants for you O God'' Psalm 42:1 [This message has been edited by Goldenrose (05-01-2006 09:51 AM).] |

Susan Surely the war against the British is how your democracy was formed? Now it is coming full circle to an imperial like regime?Your rights are being eroded everyday..when you have those who should be leading you and following laws set out to protect your rights..but instead they say ''we dont need to follow those laws, we will do as we like, listen in to who we like too''.are you living in democracy or a ''imperial'' like society? You get told what to do..how to do it..and surpressed by the media if the powers that be dont like it..sounds like imperialsm to me? Have a good day... Goldenrose.
