Im not slamming any party.. Just wanted to share this from my email...

This is the most interesting. The sad thing about it, you can see it coming.
I have heard about this Democracy countdown. It is interesting to see it in print.

About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new
Constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at
the University of Edinburgh , had this to say about the fall of the
Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier "A democracy is always
temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of
government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that
voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public
treasury. From that moment on, the majority always vote for the
candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with
the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal
policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of
the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has
been about 200 years.

"During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the
following sequence:

1. From bondage to spiritual faith;
2. From spiritual faith to great courage;
3. From courage to liberty;
4. From liberty to abundance;
5. From abundance to complacency;
6. From complacency to apathy;
7. From apathy to dependence;
8. From dependence back into bondage"

Professor Jose ph Olson of Hemline University School of Law, St.Paul,
Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning the 2000
Presidential election

Number of States won by
Gore: 19
Bush: 29

Square miles of land won by
Gore: 580,000
Bush: 2,427,000

Population of counties won by
Gore: 127 million
Bush: 143 million

Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by
Gore: 13.2
Bush: 2.1

Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won
was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country
Gore's territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in
Government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government
welfare..."

Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the
"complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of
Democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already
having reached the "governmental dependency"phase.

If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty-million criminal
invaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say good-bye to the
USA in fewer than five years.
