Politics has always been rough, but things have gotten worse thanks to liberals. That's not to say conservatives don't have their moments, but liberals have mastered and made a standard part of their playbook the total personal destruction of their opponents and their families.

Thanks for standing up for common decency. Perhaps there's hope left we can live with and work out our political differences in a civil manner.

Unfortunately I have to agree that most of this comes from the liberal side. It started in the sixties when the party was hijacked by a bunch of extremist nutjobs. It just got worse. I have friends that when I try to explain that their ideas are extreme and actually don't make any sense they get angry and hostile. Change is good, but change without careful thought is to wrecklessly hazard an entire nation. We've got a lot of thoughtless change going on in this country right now.

But, what bothered me most is that children, especially handicapped children, are off limits and it ain't one bit funny. I just spoke with this author by email and he basically said that he was trying to point out that her reasons for resigning didn't add up and that the "families" focused on the "retard".

This is what I'm talking about. It's a kind of sociopathic toxin in public discourse. He has no idea what he did. V. Van Houten
