“Democracy is not freedom. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch. Freedom comes from the recognition of certain rights which may not be taken, not even by a 99% vote.”

99% of the vote and twenty five trips to various courts. Amazing that it managed to prevail. Then again it is some 40 days to prevail day. Keep your our collective fingers crossed and bet on the lamb…

All that plus turning around three times and spitting on a good luck tree to boot. January 20th can’t come soon enough for me. Did I mention the 21st is my 50th birthday? Having this chapter officially closed will be the best birthday present EVER.
