6. I am amoung the poor in this country
but I would rather suffer through economic sanctions by the rest of the world than live in the world the bushies plan for us and our children. My favorite hero was Patrick Henry and I guess I have just a little of him in me. Sanctions may bring down the government but the land and the people will still be here and as Tom Paxton says in one of his songs "ideas once loosed on the world cannot be contained". True Democracy will live on in our hearts and the hearts of our children. We have experienced it - they cannot unexperience us. Once before Reagan made greed popular we were a great country that was free and cared for each other. We will not forget. I attended the baptism of my greatgrandchild today and I did not see her baptised into slavery to the rich. She is free and she has a right to expect this country to be here for her future not destroyed by a self distructive bunch of idiots like the bushies and their followers.
