>I doubt John Harvey called Dubya and asked if it was ok for him to get a group together and go down to New Orleans. I could be wrong, and if I am, I imagine John will correct me.
But John is a US citizen. He lives in the US. He doesn't need permission to go anywhere in the US. We just go. Does that same privilge extend to our friendly neigbors up north?
The American Republic will endure, until politicians realize they can bribe the people with their own money.
- Alexis de Tocqueville
No man’s life, liberty, or property is safe while the legislature is in session.
– Mark Twain (1866)
