very true Karma ... and thanks for the tip on the book, i'll be grabbing it today and giving it a good read.
Its just that regardless how futile a situation has seemed in my mind, I have always found comfort in the hope that a change CAN be made, and it does not need to be through violence or revolutionary action. Sometimes it seems logical minds and intelligence can prevail.
even though I have lost hope for democracy with this administration, and most possibily any administration that comes into office without being radically different from anything we have had in the past decade or two. Senator Robert Byrd ( who has served in the congress for 50 years now ) has said that this is the most secretive white house he has ever seen, and that he has never seen such intolerance for the Legislative Branch as he has seen with this administration.
I just refuse to accept that some things are completely inevitable, sometimes these changes take time, patience, and a motivation that goes unfettered. Many great civilizations have laid plans before us to illustrate how change is possible, and many of them do not involve violent revolution.
