    1981?

    "The principles you have been defending since 1981. For Americans, these are found in the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence."

    I thought Americans have been defending those principles since oh the late 1700's.

    I guess not Fred's demographic target. They were under some thumb until St. Ron prevailed and freed them. And since then they added a new principle or two.

    We're going to get even.

    and All the mony is ours.
