Amen, which is most likely the reason I won't ever be actually ELECTED to public office.  I might run, but somewhere along the line I'm going to pull a right-wing Julia Sugarbaker, spout most of what you said and some other items on my secret conspiracy list and be run out of town on a rail.  Of course, I do live in SC,,, hum!  Forget it, we couldn't even keep our flag in one piece!
