I will buy a Poster with this on it!!!:
An English Pakistani text book had the following poem in it:
It is awesome!! From the news story:
Some of my favorite lines: Ever assuring he'll stand by his word...Tells it strait and means it too... Easy in manner yet strong as steel...Waiting for the world to join his firm stand.The 20-line anonymous poem, The Leader, lists the qualities of "a man who will do what he must" and bears a passing resemblance to Rudyard Kipling's If.
You are damn strait. Seriously, if there are any marketers out there, I will buy a poster to hang up in my room! A lot of money could be made.

I wish I could show you all the posters on my wall, Bob. They are called "Celebrate People's History"
This perfectly illustrates the difference between us. You follow. You do not question. You just accept what you are told by your leaders.
I do not follow leaders. I question authority, and think for myself. I take action on my own initiative, not because of social expectations, or others who have ordered me to do so, but because I take ownership of the world around me and the wellbeing of my fellow humans.
You are an authoritarian. I am a (small "d") democrat.

That means those of us who support the President don't think for ourselves and always follow our leaders? Sorry, it gets old when people constantly must challenge everything a leader does, just for the sake of challenging it. I too take ownership of the world around me, and that includes deciding that I would rather not support someone on the system for the rest of their life, etc.
