Jimmymack is right. Anybody should be able to solve any serious national issue, without discussion, and in ten words or less. If you can't, then it must not be an issue.

Gee, I wish Republicans controlled the whole government, don't you?

The people with the paranoid "tree of liberty" gun fetish are by and large the same people with the "makers and takers" fantasy and all the other up-is-down arguments that come out of the Republican clown car. The simple fact is that they are going to be a smaller and smaller part of the electorate as time goes on. In twenty years, most will either be dead or mumbling on park benches about what went wrong.
