sympathy of her own example. She well knows that by once enlisting
under banners other than her own, were they even the banners of
foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of
extrication, in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual
avarice, envy, ambition, which assumed the colors and usurped the
standards of freedom. The fundamental maxims of her policy would
insensibly change from liberty to force....She might become the
dictatress of the world. She would no longer be the ruler of her own

Should you be reminded of the "shores of Tripoli"?

The Barbary War, where we had to defeat pirates who threatened our new
country's lifeline? I know of no current pirates operating against us.

I was reminding you of our president's religious, oil-driven farce in
Iraq/Afghanistan/Syria?/NK?/etc. which is being presented to us as a
reaction to and cure for terrorism (theirs, not ours.)


Interesting collection of buzzwords you managed to link together. Your
handlers at the DNC would be proud.
