The liberals use this and will completely destroy this country, that is their goal.

Not too long ago I would have disagreed with you. However, within the past six months I have had an interesting experience that caused me to face a possible reality. Namely, an acquaintance (aged 39) who is educated and has a high-paying mid-executive and highly respectable job, said emphatically that as far as he was concerned our entire country should be completely socialist and that any and all words pertaining to God or religion should be forbidden because he saw this as 'forcing religion on him' and he doesn't belive in God. He went on to say that he thought taxes should be as high as necessary to pay for the socialism he advocates and that everyone should have all the medical care they need completely free of charge. He saw no conflict between his advocacy of socialism and his current life-style and his current economic standard of living. This is someone with a degree in accounting! I was stunned.

Re:Your discussion with an educated,well pd professional."He saw no conflict between his advocacy of socialism and his current lifestyle."This is a good example of what i can only call a cognitive disconnect that many libs appear have in common.They advocate a godless,socialistic system,but yet they fail to see that they(of all people)have the most to lose.Reminds me of a similar conversation i recently had with a new co-worker.Mid 20's,recent coll graduate.Me-what do you think about the Minute Men and the problem with illegal immigration?Pete-What problem???Me-We've got about 10million illegals in this country and something needs to be done about it.Pete-we need a system more like Canada.
