and there are ways of holding up and preserving said noble and unique ideas for mankind (the ones that draw many Chinese and Indian people to this country) without indicting every other country in the world that hasn't yet "seen the light" as backward. (Not insinuating that you said that, just what shrubco sees fit to do) What's worse is the current administration whose main goal is to traipse all over the world to snatch up the remaining oil reserves under the guise of "spreading freedom". Myself, I don't see the point in engaging self-congratulatory praise of ourselves or the FFs for the unique invention of individual liberty, as unique and special a concept as it is. I see our role (and beleive the FFs would too) as continually trying to improve on that concept.. You can't continue to improve on it, however, when you have half of the nation beleving that the hard work is done and all we have to do is kick back, enjoy the oil and doughnuts, and spread freedom all over the world. (under bushs' rhetoric, when he talks about "spreading freedom", I can't help but have the image of a toddler smearing some kind of gook all over a wall - it's wierd, but it's the only image that comes to mind every time he says "spread freedom")

edit: spelling
