the public good so much as for selfish or local purposes; corrupt or incompetent men will be appointed to execute the Laws; the public revenues will be squandered on unworthy men; and the rights of the citizen will be violated or disregarded. If [our] government fails to secure public prosperity and happiness, it must be because the citizens neglect the Divine Commands, and elect bad men to make and administer the Laws."

We Americans are guilty of just that. We have allowed corrupt and unprincipled people to ascend to the highest offices of the land. In turn, just as Mr. Webster forewarned, these crooked individuals have created horrific laws that do away with our precious liberties, squandered hundreds of billions of dollars on illegal wars, and built a government of sleazy maniacs who do nothing for the good will of the country while claiming to be on a holy crusade in a phony war on terror. We Americans have been made the winners of a losing battle.

In the infamous words of Joseph Stalin, "Those who cast the vote decide nothing, those who count the vote decide everything." With paperless, electronic ballot boxes, fraudulent scrub lists of felons, provisional ballots that are never counted, and spoiled votes by the tens of thousands, the Republican Party has stolen every election since 2000. Beginning with the single state of Florida in that year, the Republicans built on their success record achieving rigged results in six states in 2004. One can only extrapolate what the expected total number of affected states will be come 2008.

Another famous American patriot, Thomas Paine, once declared, ""It is possible to exclude men from the right of voting, but it is impossible to exclude them from the right of rebelling against that exclusion; and when all other rights are taken away the right of rebellion is made perfect."

We have seen how this current administration has stolen the elections since 2000. We have seen how our tax dollars have been squandered on un-American activities such as illegal wars. We've seen how such laws as the Patriot Act have seriously eroded our civil liberties. I now have a question for the Toeg listeners out there.

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT IT?

For the Toeg Effect, this is Toeg.
