If you are sitting at a computer in the middle of the afternoon, sharpshooting people's posts, you need to get a life. <br /><br />Let me resort to a fine old Anglo-Saxon phrase which everyone seems to understand regardless of their mastery of the English language--"go screw yourself."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24135583.post-89099582404330437472010-07-14T16:18:05.673-04:002010-07-14T16:18:05.673-04:00It'll be one nation when we remove the "u...It'll be one nation when we remove the "under god" from it. It's the catholics that started this last round of segregationism. McCarthy is a hero to these looney right-wing thumpers.

It's a vastly different world from when we were just dealing with the Cold War and a well defined enemy.<br /><br />The voices of progress have been drowned out by those who long for the days of "separate but equal" not "hula hoops" as Mike said. I'd like to think this country has matured since then...maybe not.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24135583.post-64980190527526526182010-07-14T02:47:02.472-04:002010-07-14T02:47:02.472-04:00Tea party versus progressives--opposing groups fig...Tea party versus progressives--opposing groups fighting, spreading hatred, disgust, and more hatred---wasting time and energy.<br /><br />In the meanwhile, nothing gets accomplished, no solutions to problems, no intelligent debate, no rationality--just hatred and disgust. Why work together when we can fight?<br /><br />No wonder the country and society is in a steep decline. Kingston is only a microcosm of what is happening around the nation.<br /><br />Nice to see intelligent and mature comments here...NOT. Just animosity and the prevalent "we versus they" attitude. <br /><br />...and I thought we were all Americans.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24135583.post-17870383998381423432010-07-13T21:54:23.417-04:002010-07-13T21:54:23.417-04:00Tea-baggers and wasps are about as far apart as yo...Tea-baggers and wasps are about as far apart as you can be. Most wasps only see the church at birth, wedding, and death(if at all). These right-wingers are mostly evangelicals and catholics. Neither qualify for the wasp label.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24135583.post-1433124754438611192010-07-13T21:30:40.433-04:002010-07-13T21:30:40.433-04:00Hey, "wasps" are the ones that reject th...Hey, "wasps" are the ones that reject theocracy, remember? The founding fathers? The root of protestantism is the rejection of church rule. A little reminder daily to these tea party theocrats is long overdue. Self imposed subordination to gypsy ritualism is the root of the problem here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24135583.post-57338338273255482762010-07-13T17:28:59.181-04:002010-07-13T17:28:59.181-04:00Lord, politicians act like children.
