Of great frustration to me is the propensity of even the politically astute to lapse into lazy, band aid politics, refusing to look at the disease while attacking the symptoms. This behavior, I fear, is becoming a form of entertainment of some hiding behind their keyboards.
This is a great arena for the exchange of ideas. It also has the potential of providing a forum for those who get their jollies engaging in verbal one-upsmanship and other games. Granted, not one amongst us is perfect.
I appreciate your civil tone.
As do I, yours.
You may agree with me on this or not, but I think a great deal of what's been recently proffered has reflected the sad political realitys of that lost marshmallow class out there. Does anyone NOT believe Medicare ,and Social Security for that matter, are major MIDDLE CLASS entitlement programs , shilled all these years to desensitize the spirit. I am of the opinion tha ttrue conservative ideas are indeed the best course.When they get enacted ,they work .The hardest part is to sell them, because they are not easy to do,thought and responsibility are required. Leftism is easy, much easier than effort.
Any thoughts,Ches?
