Guess what? My family and I get along just fine without you.
I suppose you all think MSNBC, CNN and the NY Times are impartial and reliable sources of news. I recently finished Grey Lady Down and it was a sad and pathetic tale. Bernard Goldberg's Bias was another good read from several years ago.
I see all the posts here and always keep my mouth shut, but this just broke the dam.
I guess I'm a scary person with a lack of sanity. I've read all the books mentioned and more. I don't always agree with them, especially Ann Coulter, but I have to admit she's a great writer who will always make me laugh.
I will end with a selection of my favorite Jefferson quotes, which I'm sure the liberals will all deride. For people who think they are the intelligentsia they don't actually read a lot of history.
To take from one because it is thought that his own industry and that of his father’s has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association—the guarantee to every one of a free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it.
When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.
Were we directed from Washington when to sow and when to reap, we should soon want bread.
The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.
The policy of the American government is to leave their citizens free, neither restraining nor aiding them in their pursuits.

Very well said Marcy!
Supposedly politically chagred comments are only supposed to be allowed in a specific part of the forums set aside for them. Obviously the Mods don't care as long as the political opinions being posted are in line with theirs. I fully expect to be "warned" by the Moderators for my responses to the left-wing comments made through this thread, the ones the Mods do not see fit to address in the first place.
But hey, double standards are a hallmark of liberalism so I'm not surprised. After it's the Left who preaches tolerance, as long as you agree with them.
