I dumped your link as soon as I saw it was Newsmax. Well, that is quite obvious. Why do you think I called you a lap dog? NewsMax is very out in the open and up front regarding their political position which is quite refreshing. Any intelligent, thinking person sees the difference between them [honest] and the nyt and washington post, non-committal, and unwilling to admit their bias. I don't favor socialism either but I think you have a knee jerk reaction to the very thought. Knee Jerk? I was totally floored by that statement, but then I realize that she simply doesn't understand the implications of living under a socialist government... I am the daughter of an historian. While other families talked about the latest baseball scores we were seriously discussing world governments and current events. What I do know Mr. Shepard is that a healthy 28 year old man who doesn't have a job and lives off of the labor of others should be considered a mooch. In fact until I learned of his latest scheme to bilk minimum wage workers into supporting his lazy behind I had him in occasionally to service my computer. Now that I know that he really doesn't want to work, I will definitely find another IT guy that does. I think that any able bodied 28 year old healthy person owes it to our country to contribute tax dollars..... not live off of them. Those tax dollars could certainly be better spent on more worthy programs. I'm ashamed of him. If you consider yourself a reasonable person, you too will reject Newsmax or at least read it in secret.... I am more than reasonable. Anyone that dismisses opinions that differ with their own as needing to be kept secret should be scrutinized as being the most dangerous ones of all....... M
