I am a liberal patriot and I have concerns about where America is. Read bottom to top.

It can be see where people enslaved at birth by a doctrine where acceptance is dictated rather than made by free choice would find America and her people a little tiresome. Given the succesful first try at a massively revised project by NASA and Lance Armstrong's seventh, one is reminded of the grass roots genius of our people and the success they attain in their freely chosen life situations. I guess I might be a little bit mad at America too if I had my options preselected by outdated beliefs of failed generations of ancestors. Such people would be green with envy at American successes springing from free choices prepaid by generations of ancestors who gave all yesterday for freedom today. They would secretly yearn to try the American way where one might be a scientist or cyclist by vocation or avocation, as they saw fit. But instead of free choice, such souls are trapped in an elixir of madness and hate and the destruction will continue until they drink the magic potion of freedom. Then they will love and work and play and invent and create and revise and live and worship with an unknown passion, and an unquenchable thirst for freedom.
