I’m guessing this teachers ass was at least two axe handles wide.

Plus a plug of "Star" Tobacco...

We see the world through a different prism. I no longer give any benefit of the doubt to liberals who want to usurp parental rights. How far do you want them to go before you fight back vigorously?

As for the Doctor he turned his sights immediately on those who supported him and made excuses for those who would annex his rights as a parent. Not my kind of guy. Your mileage may vary there. Drs. and liberals do not owkn compassion. One of the great Goebellsian lies of my 64 years here on the third rock.

Regards.

I think we see it a lot through the same prism actually. It’s not necessarily a fun prism. Our strategy and tactics may be different, but maybe not even that, because I think there is more than one way to skin a cat and a broad attack on fascism is best.

I appreciated your original comment, which surprised someone else such that they wanted you to explain, which you did. The fact that you READ the article thoughtfully instead of skimming, and you got more out of it than the headline, was great.

All in all “statistically,” knowing how this third rock works, you are probably right, too, about the rest.

Re your statement “As for the Doctor he turned his sights immediately on those who supported him and made excuses for those who would annex his rights as a parent” — correct description — his motives less clear.

Doctors and liberals of course are (fortunately) not usually the same thing.

Liberals do not own compassion at all, but they like to think they do.

Doctors do not own compassion (or want to IMHO) but on the average doctors are more compassionate than most people, though the ones with the highest public visibility make it look otherwise. I know this from broad experience in medicine teaching from college students up past specialty. I am not saying they are 90% more compassionate, but they may be 75% more compassionate, and it’s the type of compassion that will still let them hurt a child a little bit to save that child from a big bad future problem. It takes courage and faith to do that. It’s like a sniper saving people and risking losing a little of himself. Liberals tend not to do that — they want the quick fix despite selling away the future, and that is never compassion. Eating the seed corn for next year is not compassion.

An important point, though is that doctors’ compassion tends to be towards INDIVIDUALS even when the doctor may be dyed in the wool “conservatives” toward government and society.

Doctors on the whole are not compassion toward “the system.” That is one of the big battles going on: control of doctors. The general feeling among “bigwigs” in the government/corporate fascist cabal trying to fully control medicine is that “controlling doctors is like herding cats.” The say that exact phrase all the time. Doctors on the whole are very independent and will not as easily go along with party lines. That is why terms like “the disruptive physician” have arisen as code for a doctor who will not toe the liberal line. Tag him as a pariah and you can get rid of him. Doctors are individualistic. They are (on the whole) the kind of people we want in the foxhole with us. Doctors tend to fight systems on behalf on individuals. We might need that guy in our foxhole.

Sometimes people like that doctor make themselves look worse than they really are. He may have the same instincts that a mother does defending her child, to not hurt when it is not necessary. The mother does not notice the big picture while looking at one child. The liberal is so focused on their utopian ideas that they can’t see the individual child. (They act like they do but only cherry pick things that support utopia.) In our fight against evil we will get the most mileage if we expect most dogs to act like dogs and most docs to act like docs.

No one is even going to read this because it is now so “non-timely” on this thread. FR is thank goodness not “twitter” but even it often moves on like a hand-held camcorder. But I just want Freeper eyes open to all the angles and all the potential collateral damage as we fight our battles, so here I write the last long lonely comments on a thread soon to be forgotten.

If the battle requires we go after individuals exemplifying evil — even with Alinsky-ist ridicule and derision — so be it. You thought so, and you said so on this, with good reasons, and Godspeed!

If we can skip some imperfect individuals on a bad day and go after bigger targets and principles then so be that too, and Godspeed to that too.

Jesus said both of these, and I believe them both simultaneously considering context and other issues, but some would claim they must contradict each other:

-—— Whoever is not against us is for us —Mark 9:40

-—— He who is not with me is against me —Matthew 12:30a

And “Light” is both a particle and a wave and one photon can go through two side by side holes at once. Fact. Seems contradictory too, but it’s fact.

I for sure want to fight back vigorously too. And I do. “See the airplane? Watch out for the submarine.” Maybe you are an airplane and I am a submarine. We are certainly on the same side.

So we probably see through similar lenses but maybe have different strategies and tactics to try to promote and fight to get rid of evil and for healing our God given niche in this fallen world.

Thanks for your passion for what I call “Orthodox Americanism” which includes keeping the government, including local public schools, out of parenting. And lunches. And especially for the FEDS, out of parenting and schools and everything not enumerated as powers in the Constitution!

Regards to you too.

substitute teacher after she sent a note home condemning the lunch his second-grade daughter had brought to school.

Dear Miss Rachett,

I agree, we should pay much more attention to what each other is eating. I shall be by your house, from now on, during your supper hour. I shall have a clipboard, a camera, a pen, and the "AMA Guide to Nutrition (Unabridged)".

See you tonight.
Hugs and kisses, Laz
