    Rereading it, it couldn't be any clearer.

    I'm all for every secret intelligence operation being aired, especially ones like this in which most blame will fall upon a Republican administration for subverting Mexico. Is that your belief, too?

    I wasn't saying it to be picky...that's why I had the examples. There's a huge difference.

    Look, I don't know what's going on with these documents, and I don't know if the President can hide behind Executive Privilege with them. But we're NOT a democracy in that everyone gets a vote on every issue....everyone gets to decide if a law is constitutional....everyone gets to decide if they want to share classified information or not. Going back to the Federalist Papers, our country has been strict about saying that we're not a democracy. I'm going to google this quote so that I get it right:

    It stems from something a decade before at the Constitutional Conventions:
    I'm willing to vet 600-ish people for security clearances, spending time briefing them on war plans, etc. But to put everything to a majority vote is suicidal on its face.

    Blazer Prophet is circled here by the left, which sides with conservatives killing Mexicans, and the right, which sides with Obama to keep it secret that the right is behind this.

    The only one here with pure motives is Blazer Prophet. In a foxhole I want BP with me, not James Madison, especially in his present condition.

    Don't get too full of yourself. Just because your motives are pure doesn't mean you're right about anything.
