    @al loomis

    You are correct.

    You have to wonder why the govt isn't concerned that the dogs (ah, that's citizens) of this country might soon head for Washington, where they would physically remove all their "leaders" and rightfully rend them into pieces.

    Perhaps the govt knows their base ways ......righteous behavior cannot come from the unrighteous.
