"I believe the maintenance of the rights reserved to the states and the people not only essential to the balance of the general system, but the safeguard to the continuance of a free government. I consider it as the chief source of stability to our political system, whereas the consolidation of the states into one vast republic, sure to be aggressive abroad and despotic at home, will be the certain precursor of that ruin which has overwhelmed all those that have preceded it." Robert E. Lee

Now it's 2010 and the US Empire is sinking fast towards exactly that of what recently hit Greece (tiny, tiny empire) - but it will be MUCH WORSE here in the USA. Obama was groomed in the Alinsky method - the ends justify the means - this is why Obama has used every 'mafia' method to bypass the rule of law and has denied us of democracy, our freedoms and liberties. Wake up Americans! And I could care less what (dividing) side you are on!!

Congratulations guys for your insight and self criticism.
It's good to see a real conversation on this issue. Well it is PBS after all. Speaking of which I think I need to give my local station some money.
