Amen.

While I agree with your intent, be careful with that paintbrush...everything in moderation. I have cops in the family and they are not all a bunch of heroes. Some of them are worse than the criminals they arrest. On the whole, they are honorable but remember everyone does what they do for the own reasons. Far be it for us to judge those reasons, only the fruit of their action.

I LOVE the flat tax idea though...it would make things too easy but I know a lot of accountants that would be unemployed and on the public dole! ;-)

Although I feel your frustration this would create a huge problem...aside from it being un-constitutional. Instead of being run around by ACORN, we'd be run around by Bernie Madoff's and the rich man has WAY more resources at his disposal to keep us down. Not the least of which is the ability to actually paid hired gunman and lawyers to keep us drowning in our sorrows.

Hi All,

A book I ran across last year was Thomas Sowell's "The Vision of the Anointed". He wrote it back in 1995 (I think) and it's nice and short for anyone with ADD but I think it describes EXACTLY what's happening right now in the current administration.

It actually makes an incredible case for conservative thought. The best part is the explanation of acquiring wealth and how it changes as we grow older.

Hi Sperreault...teachers aren't the problem. In fact, they can be the only defense. Thank God for good teachers...the problem (and I think as 1SGUSARET's comments are more related to) is the Teacher's Unions and how those unions allow bad policy and top down decisions to inhibit the education of our children.

Why is private education better than only (sometimes) the most affluent school districts? Especially when those private schools do NOT hire union teachers.

Another question would be why do you need a teachers union at all? Doesn't it bother you that most of your union dues go to political causes (like the Democratic party)?

Amen, brother...ask Hilary Clinton, Joe Biden and any other Democratic Senator after 9-11 who was the biggest threat to U.S. security in the world and guess what the answer was (back then)...you guessed it! Iraq.

Include in that list, Bill Clinton and (I think before he voted and then after he gave a speech) John Kerry as well.

Has anyone seen this op-ed in the NY Times:

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/25/opinion/25desan...

This was the DeSantis resignation letter that Glenn read on his show yesterday morning. The letter is fantastic but better than that are the comments afterward. I can't believe what some people are actually thinking...if anyone wants I can cut and paste the text...

Awesome!!!

You are 100% Right!!! We need to ELIMINATE money and politics. It will never happen because why bother going into politics if you can't make money (in one form or another)?

The current trend has swung against our ideals but the pendulum will swing back. Most people are sheep and they are lead by the nose (or eyebrow) ring. Americans are a hard bunch to call to muster but they always seem to react in a most auspicious way when faced with things that just grate against their ideals.

I have faith that we'll see it in 2012. If not then you know what Pliny the Elder said: "Democracies get what they deserve."

The books are OK. They are more appealing from a way of interpreting Revelations with a bringing to life of the end times. They got a bit dopey after the 3rd one and I couldn't read it anymore. If the Rapture is your thing, then it's a good read but don't take it too seriously. They are not prognostication books more like taking the idea and molding it into a modern perspective.

The beginning of the book starts with the Rapture and how people disappear. If that actually happens and we are Left Behind, we better find a church quick and throw ourselves on God's mercy...

The last thing I worry about is the anti-Christ only because with God as my co-pilot all is right.
