    If so then it's not really large numbers of "takers" voting to keep dems in power.

  2. "Elective Dictatorship"... that's what we have today. And it ain't gonna change until we citizens take up arms and have a bloody revolution.

    If you think about it, you can make an argument that America has become an enslaved nation.

    1. The Politicos have power. They make laws from which they exempt themselves.

    2. The majority of voters are now parasites and ALWAYS vote for "more free ice cream" for themselves... NOTHING gonna change THAT!

    3. The rest of us... the makers/producers... and few enough in number that we actually have no political voice... we just provide the money to run the country... that is, buy-off the parasite vote to keep the politicos in office and provide the juice to pay for everything else the politicos want to spend our money upon.

    Ain't all that different in principle from cotton plantations in the pre-Civil War South.

    According to Eric Holder, the ongoing investigation into George Zimmerman is an 'essential service' and is ongoing today.

    Can you imagine if Holder was as dedicated to cooperating with congress over sending arms to Mexican drug cartels? Or investigating the tax evasion of Charles Rangel and Timothy Geithner?

    Is no different than the mafia. When one of the producers steps out of line, and questions the lazy top dog he's kicking money up to, he's either sanctioned heavily, or worse.

    When one of the producers "steps out of line" to question elected authority, the IRS comes down on him, his phones are tapped, his e-mails and texts are read, and stored.

    Hmmmm...:mad:
