Do you have a portable copy too? Do you carry it with you? My copy is just the one in the Webster's Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary of the English Language and I must say it is rather too heavy a book to carry with me.

Where they say "ALL"" they didn't mean it. It did not include African Americans, Indentured Servants or Women . So this country was founded on prejudice and to this day we have been faithful to it. Why?
"And for the support of this Declaration, with the firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor" .

He most likely has 100 different "companies" that are incorporated to hide his money in ways that would take a forensic accountant (why does that exist??) years to figure out.

So how can we possibly take anything seriously when we know it is all based on partisan selective prejudiced self-serving views? There is an objective truth out there somewhere but it is never within our reach because our truths go through the filter of subjectivity. Is there any escape from it? The lies, distortions, half-truths, insults, attacks? Is it now and forever always going to be part of "the game"? Life is a HUGE Funhouse filled with distorted mirrors and we take it all so seriously. Don't we? less

Pot is legal in my state, but REMAINS illegal under federal law. Even though it's a STATE database, there's no guarantee that the feds can't get it and prosecute me. If I sued the state to get my card based on that issue, would I win?
