It is funny, but Lawrence O'Donnell was on McLaughlin tonight and he was mouthing similar views. He even hinted at secession. He said something like the blue states who pay more to the federal government and get little in return will resent being governed by the red states who are welfare states. I could not believe what I was hearing.
Tony refuted that a bit later, quite well, I thought. But all that screeching gets to me after a while. Two things with regard to this post: - President said just yesterday he was going to tackle entitlements. - I have a neighbor who voted for Kerry and who is just now learning from me that the bin Laden family didn't get out of the US without being questioned. He learned a bunch of other things, too. - There's hope, but we have to get into the universities and into the classrooms and start teaching these kids to think critically instead of swallowing propaganda.
