heh yeah, thats true America was setup as a republic. Which means everyone gets a say (right? right?). In a democracy not everyone gets a say only the majority. There is a big difference ;-)

uhh, it's worth mentioning that the patriot act isn't 'republican'. :| I don't want to sound too politically opinionated because I'm not, I try to avoid that shit Anyways.. I think this great country is as each day passes becoming more of a democracy than a republic
