"Fans of Health Insurance Companies" Now I can understand being a "GM Fan" or a "Toyota Fan" if you like the car. Pretty hard to understand being a fan of a health insurance company. But then you have Trekkies too, so different strokes. --Vic

OK - found the one I was reminded of - it may not be the one you had in mind, but it was Samuel Adams: "A general dissolution of the principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy.... While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but once they lose their virtue, they will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader.... If virtue and knowledge are diffused among the people, they will never be enslaved. This will be their great security." Also: "No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and Virtue is preserved. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauched in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders." The quotes were in two separate letters to James Warren. -- Bill Putney (To reply by e-mail, replace the last letter of the alphabet in my address with the letter 'x')

Here's the history link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/december/11/newsid_3532000/3532401.stm OTOH Saddam Hussein did not declare war against the US, and the idiot even told his cabinet in 2003 that the US would never attack because the US liked him.
