Democracy in Action

Benny's got it right. Hitler was voted into power. So was Napoleon. The worst thing to do in a time of crisis is to vote away your rights. Politicians are all rats, and you can't trust them with too much power, thus the balance of powers and the Bill of Rights. Yeah, its inefficient. It's supposed to be.

I'll get off the soapbox now, most everyone who reads this blog is a fellow liberal anyway.
