A Two-Fer of the highest order. Linda Kimball tells it like it is. People often wonder (if they have any intelligence at all) why things are going to he!! in a handbasket. This article gives us some clues.
Pass this article (and her previous related articles) on to friends and relatives who don't have a clue yet. Maybe they'll wake up from their slumber.
Ping me, DBeers, Scripter or wagglebee if you want on/off either list. Sorry I'm html impaired. Maybe in the future I'll have time to learn.
(Greetings to all new listees, and old ones!)
Thanks for posting this and the ping.
If we try to explain this to our family members and friends, they just look at us like we are crazy.
I now longer try to win the war with family members and even close friends. I pick my battles and situations like the Dan Blather fiasco. Then, I use that grim reality for the moderates and liberals, whenever, I'm challenged re my other observations. I will say, "Remember when you said I was crazy when I said that Dan Blather and Mary Mapes lied and fabricated an attempted coup against our President? You will not be laughing when X (what we are discussing) shows me to be correct again.
Currently, I'm in that situation as family members and friends, priests and bishops are trying to tell us and me that the new head Episcopal Bishop, the new radical lib is not a moderate as we are being told. I cut short any conservations where they try to tell me that she is a moderate with, "Don't Pee on my leg and call it rain! She is as moderate as Hilliarly Clintoon is."
Maybe in the future I'll have time to learn. >>>
you didn't learn yet?
Strangely enough, I was telling my next door neighbor some of this stuff yesterday. I am happy to report that he just called me a few minutes ago and wanted me to tell him more. I am printing out this article for him as this woman says it much better than I can.
