What is Democracy? 2,000 wolves and 1,000 sheep voting who's for dinner. What is a Republic? 2,000 wolves and 1,000 sheep electing representatives to decide who's for dinner. What is a Constitutional Republic? 2,000 wolves and 1,000 sheep creates a piece of paper that says that sheep are not to be eaten. The representatives that the wolves elect says that that piece of paper does not cover mutton. What is a Monarchy? A family of wolves ruling over 2,000 wolves and 1,000 sheep and decides who is for dinner. What is a dictator? One wolf ruling over 2,000 wolves and 1,000 sheep, and decides who is for dinner. What is liberty? Armed sheep contesting the vote.

So true! I hope we arrive shortly at the last definition, but armed with determination and knowledge instead of destructive weapons. It's about time. Thomas Jefferson said the occasional revolution is essential for a healthy nation and I can't think of a better time to have one than right now!
