A SANE RESPONSE

John J. Wall, Law Student, wrote:
Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950's for the sake of the kids, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has clearly run its course.
{RESPONSE: WHAT IS SO INSURMOUNTABLY DIFFERENT NOW THAN IT WAS 6 YEARS AGO, OR 10 OR 20 YEARS AGO? WHERE WAS YOUR OUTRAGE DURING THE FIRST DECADE OF THE NEW CENTURY WHEN OUR DEBT SKYROCKETED AND OUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS WERE ALLOWED TO RAPE AND PILLAGE OUR ECONOMY? YOU SAT AND WATCHED AS OUR COUNTRY SPIRALED DOWNWARD WITHOUT SO MUCH AS A BLEAT OF CONCERN. NOW SUDDENLY YOU'RE ALARMED TO THE POINT OF SELF DESTRUCTION? WHAT CHANGED YOU SO RADICALLY? BECAUSE IT WASN'T THE COUNTRY THAT CHANGED--IT WAS YOU!}

JW: Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right for us all, so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.
{RESPONSE: OH, SUCH IGNORANCE! THE 2 IDEOLOGICAL SIDES YOU ARE PITTING AGAINST EACH OTHER ONLY REPRESENT THE FRINGE--THERE'S A WHOLE NATION BETWEEN THEM! THOSE OF US WHO ARE NEITHER EXTREME LEFT OR RIGHT, WE MIDDLE PEOPLE, WILL KEEP OUR COUNTRY MOVING WHILE YOU UNBENDING BLOCKHEADS TRY YOUR BEST TO TEAR US APART. LEARNING WISDOM MEANS LEARNING TO GET ALONG WITH YOUR FELLOW HUMANS ON PLANET EARTH--WHETHER THEY ARE LEFT, RIGHT, MIDDLE OR SOMETHING ELSE OR SOME PLACE ELSE. WHAT MAKES ONE PERSON'S BELIEFS 'BAD' AND ANOTHER'S 'GOOD' IS MERELY OPINION. THAT'S ALL. IN THE USA WE START WITH A BASKET OF OPINIONS, THEN WE SIT DOWN TOGETHER, GIVE SOME, TAKE SOME, HORSE TRADE AND COME TO A WORKABLE COMPROMISE AS WE ALWAYS HAVE. THIS IS AMERICA, THAT'S WHAT WE DO. YET YOU ARE SO TWISTED THAT YOU THINK WE NO LONGER CAN BE CIVIL AND WORK OUT A COMPROMISE? THE PROBLEM IS YOU--DON'T TRY TO BLAME IT ON SOME VAGUE PARANOIA YOU HARBOR. GET HELP, YOU NEED IT.}

JW: Here is a model separation agreement:
--Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a similar portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.
{RESPONSE: WHILE YOU EXTREMISTS ARE REDRAWING YOUR EXCLUSIONARY BOUNDARIES AND TRYING TO RECREATE WHAT WOULD RESULT IN ANOTHER CIVIL WAR, WE SANE AMERICANS ON BOTH SIDES WILL CARRY ON AND WORK THINGS OUT WITH EACH OTHER.}

JW: --We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them.
{RESPONSE: PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS! RIGHT WINGERS OUT IN RURAL AMERICA GLADLY TAKE AWAY MY HARD-EARNED MONEY WHEN MY URBAN TAXES ARE COLLECTED AND DISPROPORTIONATELY REDISTRIBUTED TO PROVIDE YOUR RURAL COMMUNITY BASIC SERVICES YOU CAN'T AFFORD--POLICE, FIRE, ROADS, PARKS, SCHOOLS. YOU DIDN'T ACTUALLY THINK YOU WERE PAYING FOR ALL THOSE SERVICES BY YOURSELF, DID YOU? SO I GUESS YOU'LL BE GIVING THOSE DIRTY REDISTRIBUTED DOLLARS BACK AND PROVIDING FOR YOUR OWN SERVICES, KINDA LIKE YOU PLAN FOR HEALTH CARE TO BE PROVIDED?}

JW: --You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU.
{RESPONSE: AND YOU'LL END UP WITH JACKBOOTS AND FORCED COMPLIANCE WITH THE NEW WORLD ORDER. THAT'LL COME SOON, COMRADE!}

JW: --Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military.
{RESPONSE: THAT'S YOUR NOTION, IS IT? WE DON'T HATE COPS AND GUNS AND THE MILITARY. IT'S JUST CONVIENT FOR YOU TO MAKE THOSE ACCUSATIONS TO FUEL HATRED. YOU WON'T END UP WITH COPS AND MILITARY AS YOU KNOW THEM--YOU'LL HAVE PEOPLE DICTATING HOW YOU LIVE AND STORM TROOPERS CARRYING OUT THEIR ORDERS, AND YOU WILL OBEY!}

JW: --We'll take the nasty, smelly oil industry and you can go with wind, solar and bio diesel. {RESPONSE: AND WE'LL FIX THE MESS YOU MAKE--WE ALWAYS DO.}

JW: --You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell. You are, however, responsible for finding a bio diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them.
{RESPONSE: IN THE AMERICA YOU'RE SO WILLING TO DESTROY ALL PEOPLE ARE ENTITLED TO THEIR OPINIONS, COMRADE. EVEN THOSE WHO DON'T AGREE WITH YOU. THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T GET TO SHAME HER BY GIVING HER NAME TO YOUR NEW WORLD ORDER.}

JW: --We'll keep capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street.
--You can have your beloved lifelong welfare dwellers, food stamps, homeless, home boys, hippies, druggies and illegal aliens.
--We'll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO's and rednecks.
--We'll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood.
{RESPONSE: WHY WOULD YOU NEED THE BIBLES? YOU DON'T FOR ONE MINUTE THINK YOU'RE PRACTICING ANY FORM OF CHRISTIANITY, DO YOU? YOU DO NOT HAVE AN EXCLUSIVE LINE TO GOD JUST BECAUSE YOU SAY SO--YOU HAVE TO LIVE YOUR RELIGION, NOT JUST MOUTH IT. IF JESUS WALKED AMONG US, WHO WOULD HE MOST CLOSELY BE AFFILIATED WITH? RIGHT WINGERS WHO DETEST THOSE 'LIFELONG WELFARE DWELLERS, FOOD STAMPS, HOMELESS, HOME BOYS, HIPPIES, DRUGGIES AND ILLEGAL ALIENS' (YOUR WORDS)? WOULD HE BE PREACHING TO CARRY YOUR GUNS AND BE INTOLERANT OF ANYONE WHO DOESN'T AGREE WITH YOU? NO, HE WOULD BE TELLING US TO PUT DOWN OUR GUNS AND LOVE EACH OTHER, NOT TO HATE SO MUCH THAT IT SPLITS US INTO PIECES. WHAT IS SO INSURMOUNTABLY DIFFERENT NOW? WHAT HAS FILLED YOU SO FULL OF HATRED AND DERISIVE SCORN?}

JW: --You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us.
--You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.
{RESPONSE: OH HONEY! YOU ARE ALREADY UNDER ASSAULT--FROM WITHIN YOURSELF. WE'LL PRAY FOR YOU USING THE BIBLES THAT BELONG TO US NOW! DON'T FORGET--JESUS WAS A 'PEACENIK'!}

JW: --We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values.
{RESPONSE: YOU TOTALLY LOST THOSE VALUES. JESUS IS NOT ON YOUR SIDE.}

JW: --You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, political correctness and Shirley McLane. You can also have the U.N. but we will no longer be paying the bill.

--We'll keep the SUV's, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Volt and Leaf you can find.
--You can give everyone health care if you can find any practicing doctors.
--We'll continue to believe health care is a luxury and not a right.
--We'll keep "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "The National Anthem."
--I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute "Imagine", "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing", "Kum Ba Ya" or "We Are the World".

--We'll practice trickle down economics and you can continue to give trickle up poverty your best shot.
{RESPONSE: OH YES, TRICKLE DOWN HAS WORKED SO WELL FOR YOU.}

JW: --Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name and our flag.
{RESPONSE: YOUR VERSION OF HISTORY IS A FABRICATION--A LIE. YOU CAN'T JUST REWRITE WHAT YOU DON'T LIKE. AND, BY THE WAY, THEY AREN'T 'YOUR' NAME, FLAG, NATIONAL ANTHEM. THEY BELONG TO ALL OF US. AND YOU DISGRACE THEM!}

JW: Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like-minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you answer which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.
{RESPONSE: YOUR RIGID CODE WOULD PUT YOU IN SUCH A POLICE STATE IN 15 YEARS THAT EVENTUALLY YOUR CITIZENS WOULD REBEL, LIKELY ENDING IN A HORRENDOUS BLOOD BATH AND MAYBE A NEW DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE WHERE ALL PEOPLE WERE CREATED EQUAL. ISN'T IT WONDERFUL THAT WE ARE ALREADY THERE? GOD BLESS AMERICA!}
