Therapeutic Counsel

Mental illness and public safety. Democrats and Iraq. Nancy and tyrants. Plus much more.

(Page 6 of 16)

/p>

Liberals, more than anything, fear the influence of people of independence. To this end, the conservative is not just the focus for turning the resentment of the ill-informed populace away from the oppressive liberal agenda, but the conservative represents a moral independent belief that will not be driven into uncritical acceptance of dogma. As long as this moral independence exists, the liberals' agenda will be threatened, hence their perpetual need to suppress critical independent thought.

p>To that end, the only difference between the Taliban or the al-Q insurgent and the liberal media/political voices in this country is one of lies and rhetoric on one hand and of guns and bombs on the other. All intend to demoralize the populace as a whole and pick up the pieces to further their own oppressive agenda. At least, this North Florida country boy sees it that way. br> -- Ray H. br> Wellborn, Florida /p>

In his column Peter Hannaford writes, "Congressional Democrats have adopted the See-No-Evil-Hear-No-Evil posture in order to focus on their only goals: winning the 2008 election and escaping the blame for undercutting our troops in the field."

p>They have also adopted the See-No-Good-Hear-No-Good-Speak-No-Good posture to focus on their other goal: America losing in Iraq and the blame being placed on the Republicans. br> -- Ned Scarlet br> Cleveland, Utah /p>

It's starting to look a lot like the seventies all over again. The Democrats once again want to cut funding for a war they don't like.

p>I remember than when the funding for supporting South Vietnam and the rest of Southeast Asia was cut, millions died. Would the result be any different this time?
