<<This is the essense of the Radical failure.>> And the more you label sensible people who are only asking for truth in representative government with these extremist descriptors, the more you show your unwillingness to deal with issues as a rational and sensible human. You seem to have an unbreachable tunnel vision and an inexhaustible ability to label anybody who doesn't fit your paradigm, the boogie man. YOU are the essense of the problem you are you are refering to. <<I expect that in 50 years there will be little Radical villiages kind of like the Amish.>> I have great respect for and mean no offense to the minority of individuals who might embrace this life style.

<<""It takes a Village">> It takes responsible adults to raise a child. It always has and it always will. Ideally the two who were responsible for conception. I have witnessed dozens of kids growing up without responsible parents. Every counselor, interventionist, probation officer and social worker throwing a net over such children has no positive effects. People who work with kids call it the warehousing approach. It keeps the lid from boiling off until they can be released into adult society. Ok, responsible parents with a village of responsible adults would be nice. I note your cynicism. Interestingly, responsible parents generally identify a community of responsible adults that have involvement with their kids. How radical is that? Or since it is common sense, lets just label it radical extremism to advance some political position.

Depends on the us and the them. Shows how little you know. The Amish don't live in isolated villages. They live in fairly large communities spread across Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Ohio.

TP--- My father's people were Jews from Latvia. My maternal grandfather's people were from Southern Italy. My maternal grandmother was a Catholic of English descent, from her father, while her mother was Methodist. I married a Presbyterian of English, Scottish, and German ancestry, and one of my brothers married an African- American woman. My brother and I are both conservative. I guess we are the exceptions that prove the rule, or maybe you don't have any idea about what you are talking about...
