Any US Expatriates here?

[Sean C]

I'm sticking it out 'til the bitter end. I've been to several other countries both as a visitor and temporary resident. They were nice, and I enjoyed my time there. But there is no place I'd rather be than here. The U.S. isn't perfect - of course - but it is my home and I love it dearly. And as others have mentioned, every country has its own problems.

If I'm going down with this ship, I'll go down fighting.

Besides, this country has been through worse. Civil war, depression, world war, Woodrow Wilson ...

Wrong. They did it because of an oft forgotten passage in the Constitution known as the Tenth Amendment. The federal government's charter only provides a very limited number of powers and duties - and those don't include making decisions on abortions. Many federal laws are in direct violation of the Constitution. There is a reason this is called "The United States of America" and not "The Federal District of America".
