Makes me vomit quite frankly. They read something but do absolutely nothing to adhere to the principals. "All men are created equal " should be changed to "All persons having enough wealth to shape legislation, are created equal"

"All men are created equal" in that sperm taps an egg. Never heard of it being done any other way, whether done in a woman or test tube.

As soon as delivery takes place it's readily apparent not all is equal. If it was all kids would learn to walk and talk on the same day and all would have parents that instill the importance of education sans maybe a few artists.

If we were all equal there would be no need to tax one as much as a thousand others :)

If all horses were equal there'd be no such thing as horse racing and thus no Derby Trail. :eek:
