I really would like to encourage you to keep writing pieces like this. You and the liberal open minds of intellectual discourse continue to expose your narrow world view and your bitterness towards success.

You like to package the public in nice little stereotypes and categories all catalogued by their isms. Unfortunately for your intellectual crowd, the world does not conform to this rather narrow standard of categorization.

We are a wide array of talents and abilities, each possessing within ourselves, the power to be masters of our own destinies, as endowed by our Constitution, established to protect us from the over-reaching and over-burdening arm of governmental control and influence in our daily lives.

Yet we find the liberal crowd diving further into our pockets and into own homes in a concerted effort to punish the rich for their success through more taxation that funds social programs that continually repress the standard of living for others possessing these same talents and abilities, but lacking the motivation to enact their powers.

It is quite obvious the ambivilance you have against people who have acquired greater riches than yourself through the open and free exchange of their goods and services on the marketplace of capitalistic adventure. It is clear the poor standard of measure in which you view people who wish to receive greater portions of the paychecks that they earn through their own efforts of hard work.

These are the very people that make America work. These are the people that produce the economy that you berate. These are the values of hard work and dedication enstilled in our Armed Services that have achieved 15 of 18 benchmarks in Iraq and have produced what appears to be the begining of a thriving democracy in that reagion. Yet you continually lambast their efforts. It’s all for lies. Thousands have died. Pullout. Retreat. Defeat.

So I encourage you, John, as our local liberal purveyor of intellect, please continue on your barrage. It exposes you for who you really are. The bitterness, the anamosity, the narrowness in which you view the world.
