I've been advocating for a French Revolution in this country for a long time.

Though the French did go a bit bananas with it (esp. at the end) it was, at first, a sound idea. AND it got results. I think that, as Americans, we can embrace and improve upon the spirit of the French Revolution and make it our own.

Off with their heads!

I've been wanting a revolution since the early 90s. After Reagan and Bush I became quite disillusioned with politicians and the policies they put forth. I voted for Clinton the 1st time, but not the 2nd, because I found I didn't like him as much as I thought I would. He turned out to be too moderate. I thought he would be more progressive. I hope Obama doen't turn out like that.

I heard something recently, don't remember where, but someone said, in France, the government is afraid of the people, here, the people are afraid of the government. Which is better for the people?
