Has the capitulation on Telecom immunity and FISA so destroyed the constitution that America no longer actually exists as a nation under law?

| 1. Option 4, because the current crew have been corrupted by |
|
big money. I'm sorry, but that's really what I see.

| 3. I can't wait for the projected riots the Army is preparing for |
|
That tells me far worse is coming...and I'm already blacklisted due to the efforts of a not-so-subtle relative.
It's depressing and freeing to be dead where you stand.

| 4. I am a bit surprized that no one so far has chosen |
|
the first or second option...
So far 15% of us expect to die in this crisis.
It says something, I think.

| 5. Yes, and I wish they'd change the name. My suggestion: |
|
The 50 seceded states formally known as the US.

I'd like to note the irony of your name, too.

everything else is a revolution waiting to happen.
And the left can be as realpolitik as the right.
Ask Beria, if you don't believe me.
