The Founders Warned Us About Some One Some Time...Could Be Right About Now.

"The disorders and miseries which result gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation on the ruins of public liberty.
It serves always to distract the public councils and feeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which find a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions.
It is important, likewise, that the habits of thinking in a free country should inspire caution in those entrusted with its administration to confine themselves with in their respective constitutional spheres, avoiding in the exercise of the powers of one department to encroach upon another. The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all departments in one and thus to create, whatever the form of government, a real despotism.
If in the opinion of the people the distribution or modification of the constitutional powers be in any particular wrong, let it be corrected by an amendment in the way which the Constitution designates. But let there be no change by usurpation; for though this, in one instance, may be the instrument of good, it is the customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed."

FLAHR in, the name of a gold coin first made in Florence in the 1200's. The name comes from the Latin word for flower. The florin bore the imprint of a lily on one side, and the figure of Saint John the Baptist on the other side. The first English florin was issued as a six-shilling gold coin in the reign of Edward III (1327-1377). A Silver English florin worth two shillings was first coined in 1849.
[The World Book Encyclopedia]
A USA Silver ten cent coin, bore the imprint of a lily on one side, and the figure of Franklin D. Roosevelt (USA Pres. 1933-1945) on the other side (Dime).

Delaware Republican Senate Nominee Christine O’Donnell, Thanks To Karl Rove, Lost Key Senate Seat!

Conservative Christine O’Donnell carried the tea party voters. She bested the bearded Marxist with independents. But, she did not carry enough REPUBLICANS to win in Delaware tonight.
What an absolute shame.  So says Gateway Pundit...
Does anyone feel like William Wallace when he found out Robert De Bruce was working for the other side?
Karl Rove would not let the Republicans help Christine O'Donnell win a KEY Senate Seat!
O'Donnell would have been sworn in this November, being the 51st Republican Senate Vote to BLOCK any attempt of a Lame Duck Session.
Can you say GOOD BYE 401k, IRA, and Pension? The DemocRats will send the Bill to the President to sign into law that will give your retirement funds to the UNIONS. Can you live on $600 a mo.? That is all your retirement funds will be worth after the UNIONS take their part.
And who knows what else the House has sent to the Senate for Passage.
What a Shame. What A Shame.

If Rove was really for conservativism and didn't ascribe to an elitist philosophy then maybe she could have won the election. It was an uphill battle regardless since Delaware is an ultra liberal state.
