I didn't put this up as a hit piece on the repub's, they just don't need more bad press right now.

We are the roman empire - an entrenched, bureaucratic, superfluous, corrupt government involved in warfare throughout the world. The dollar is the currency of the world, but once it isn't, say goodbye to empire. We need a "benevolent dictator" - I'll vote for Dogfish, Dan S, and KK as the front runners.
