Sir;... Let me help you out, since you seem to have missed the most salient information in the section you quoted from Our Declaration of Independence: That when ever the form of government becomes destructive of these ends (the rights to life,  liberty, and the pursuit of happiness) it is the right of the people to alter and abolish it, and institute a new government laying its foundation on such principals and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness... Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light  and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.... .. . Now sir; I want you to notice the word 'form' and principal, which is the equivalent of forms... Any one who believes that our founding fathers were dumbells should consider how much of philosophy has been taken up with forms, ideals, principals, notions, and concepts; which are all essentially the same thing... And we use these words constantly, and all have a general grasp of their meaning; but usually without any profound understanding of their significance... And this is clear of you too, as you have passed over the meat to reach the sweets...We are all informed...Many of us have worn a uniform...Many of us have suffered through formalities; and all of us are in some form of relationship, and in fact, many, many... People form governments all the time... Why????For good, says Aristotle.... Rights, safety, and happiness is the reason, says Jefferson... I agree with both... But you must understand that what people are, we can never change... Humanity in our oldest myths is still visibly humanity... We cannot change our basic needs.... All we can change -to progress in life- is our forms, which again, are all forms of relationship... So we have changed our forms of technology, and we have changed our forms of economy, and we have changed our forms of governments, and we have changed our forms of  religion, and we have change our forms of education..Humanity always follows its better ideas into better forms of relationship.. But we have not changed what we are, because we cannot; so that when one form fails us, we create a new form to serve our needs... It happens all the time, and apart from the desire of people to hold on to the past, and apart from their fear of change, one thing only keeps them locked in forms that fail them; and it is that they do not know what they are dealing with...Jefferson knew... You do not know... You equate a change of personalities with a change of government... That shows you do not get it... We all need formal consciousness; and it is for the very facts that Jefferson faced... Our forms have failed us... Look at the formula of our government; our constitution... Look at the goals it set forth: Defense, general welfare, justice, tranqulity, perfect union, liberty... Have I neglected any goal so much as the constitution???We are turned against each other...Our defense is compromised... Our general welfare is none existent, and our tranquility is lost... We cannot defend our rights from our government, and our government does not defend our rights against the rich..Where is our perfect union??? Where is liberty???.Who can care if the tyranny is without end, or if it comes with a term, since each new king is corrupted by his power, and by the process of achieving it... The lesson Jefferson teaches does justice to philosophy.... It is an eternal truth for humanity that we must, and often do change our forms... But history is rife with examples of people who could not change their forms, and were, as a result, run over and rubbed out... Societies must renew themselves through revolution, or they will be rubbed out and buried... I am all for the former...It is time to reform, but the government cannot, and will not reform....The transformation this nation needs will not happen so long as citizens blame each other, and bless the empty forms that ruins them...Thanks...Sweeney  

I like Blagojevich's hair! I know it's sexy. I've seen hair like that before...... I like, also his just views on things.

I think the only thing wrong here is: the fact that Blagojevich is dealing with a bunch of evil politicians who refused to change when they saw a change coming-Rob Blagovich! Instead, they decided to shoot the messenger!. Guess what folks? The change is already here!. It will not fail.... watch my words. Start loving. Stop hating. If you start now it should take you approxiately 3-5 years. I did. I know.... Thanks, Boni Rich
