Featured Writings

Read letter # 3, published on July 1, 1989, Flag burning a sensitive issue
A high school classmate brought this old letter to my attention on how
prophetic it now sounds in light of the terrorists attacks on New York City & Washington D.C.
Thanks Paul.  And thanks for your service in the Navy for our country.

Speak Out Before It's Too Late
"When you see that trading is done not by consent, but by compulsion -- when you see that in order to produce you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing -- when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors-- when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you -- when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice -- you may know that your society is doomed."
--Ayn Rand, from "Atlas Shrugged" . . . read letter #17

 
Veteran Writer Back With Views
I am suggesting here that liberals are just somebody's useful idiots.  I believe some of the scriptwriters are social dependency engineers. I don't know "for sure" why they are writing it this way, or who their producers are, but then I'm not getting paid to find out.

Revealing the truth to the people is the job of our "unbiased" national media pit bulls.
Surely their words are not also scripted, thus making them useful idiots as well?
