I will not ever live my life in fear of Al-qaeda or this Administration
If I want to travel somewhere. I will do it. If I want to go to London and ride their public transportation I'll do it. I don't care if Bush and Cheney show up on my doorstep and try to personally scare me to death about AQ. I will not be narcotized by fear.

I don't care what the color alert is.

I will not worry about how much duct tape I have in my Terror Kit.

I will refuse to be racist.

I will not ever be a bigot.

I will not play politics with women's rights.

I will continue to care for and be friends with people, no matter how they look, what color skin they have, what gender they are, what gender they sleep with, or how much money they have in their bank account or pockets.

I am going to be me, live my life, fight for what I feel is right and not ever let anybody tell me who or what I should fear.

Nothing will change that.

I hope you all feel the same way.

And if I am exterminated for my beliefs, so much the better.

4. fear of this administration is justified
They're doing some very bad things, and are hurting a lot of people, and are very real. This is extremely different from the nebulous, near-fictional Al Qaeda.

5. Great Philosophy!
with which I strongly agree. Additionally, one of my favorite all time quotes framed and sits beside me:

"DO ONE THING EVERY DAY THAT SCARES YOU."
(Eleanor Roosevelt)
