    Well the plans for the uprising were supposed to remain a secret. I guess we'll have to put things on hold for now.

    The proposed Trans Texas Corridor route runs right through the middle of the Branch Davidian property outside Waco.

    Their new preacher is pissed! :lol:

    I think the message would go down better if the men didn't sound like they were consipracy theorists or if it didn't sound like a Democrat fundraiser.

    Yeah. It would be better coming from a more credible site that one that claims the Bushes are worshipping Satan in the bohemian grove and that 911 is a Bushiosi conspiracy.

    They don't worship Satan at Bohemian Grove. They worship Moloch. :rolleyes:

    I love democracy and constitutional government. What happens if we take a long hard look at it and decide it's failed, as it seems to be at the moment? Will what comes next be any better?

    I had a good idea for a government system.

    Then I realized it was a damn good idea for a book, and backspaced like hell.

    But what I mean is we had a Constitutional government for 220 years, and it was the best one available with checks and balances and we still managed to break it. Who's to say that an armed revolt against Austin or D.C will come up with anything better?

    The armies of Elwoodistan will crush you, drive you before them, and be strengthened by the lamentations of your women.

    Humans will 'break' everything they create, because we expect a perfect system of government that will always, always worry about what each individual wants, not require any funding, and keep each person safe and happy with all the money and possessions they want.

    We're very, very good at breaking everything we have.

    However, when my army of cybernetic zombies crush everything in their path, I promise you both key roles as my respective swordsharpener and dolphin entertainer.

    An army of cybernetic zombies is one of only two things that would cause The Principality of Shoes and Elwoodistan to bury the hatchet between us and come at you like a spider monkey. :bergman:

    I'll need a Ninja trainer and a werewolf.

    Now, start training your ball throwing arm. Or I can install a robotic scoop.

    Zombie government will be handled fairly by the zombified/cyborg Triumvirate, including the Mother, the Warrior, and the Sage.
