yeow,
ok guy, here goes. i like history, so let's talk about the
McCarthy Hearings,or the Star Chamber,or the use of the military against Unions
and protesters (as in the classic attack on WW1 Vets led by Ike, i am sad to say), and, of course, Nixon's Creep (Committee to re-elect the Pres; ever hear of Watergate?)
all this adds up to a tradition of right wing persecution, and violence. What has happened is quite simple. This tradition, in a very dilute form, has been picked up by the Left.
this is what i think:
1) you have a point
2) it is quite difficult to decode
3) this is a nice place, and not well served by politics
4) if you wish to discuss these matters with authority, you need a better understanding of our history and traditions.
5) and then if you could please write those thoughts in a clear, straightforward manner, i would be grateful
ps,
Clinton is cut from the same cloth as Nixon. He is a much better president. If you disagree with that, i strongly suggest you read a couple
of books about his presidency, especially his torture of the United States economy (which almost everyone misses). American politics is such that we will elect someone like that,
when times are good, so expect to see another like him.
Honestly, the things that bother you concerning rights and freedom;
are less of a problem today than they have been for most of our history.
I agree they are still a problem. Hopefully, we can someday come to an agreement, as a country, to scale back govermental involvement in essentially personal matters. I look forward to continuing our correspondance.
