[QUOTE="JediStryker, post: 22165, member: 12"] [b]Re: Bedtime for Democracy[/b] You are not in a position to tell that I am wrong. You can have your opinion, and you can cling to it with all the strength you can muster, but your opinion is no weightier than mine. I disagree with you, and that's that.
