Liberal Foolishness

Editor, Times-Union:

Nov. 10, the "Dream Team" spoke up with a vengeance. I broke my own rule and read their letters, oh well.

Jeff Sanders gave us all an overhaul for name calling, then proceeded to do the exact same thing himself. Too bad he can't use all that energy to fight for this country instead of against it. If he needs a list of how the Democratic Liberal Socialist party is destroying this nation, then he is beyond help.

If he thinks the tea party folks are all clowns, Republicans, and have no purpose, then he has never been to one (his only source of knowledge is TV). They are all parties (in attendance) and have one quest, and that is to get this nation back into the hands of the people.

Also, if you think there are liberals fighting and dying for our country, you are sadly mistaken. Democrats, Republicans, Independents and so on are fighting and dying, but no liberals. There is a difference between true Democrats and liberals.

It's obvious that Mr. Sanders has never watched Fox News either. He'd learn a lot and for one, there are lots of conversations from all sides. As he said, "The blind can only see what they want."

Ah, Ms. Collins. The lady who desires the U.S. government and taxpayer to take care of her. You should have your doctor write scripts to Walmart's pharmacy. Dozens of meds of all kinds for $4 each. If you don't have a doctor, go to Med Stat. If you require a hospital visit, you can work out payments, no one is turned away. If you still can't afford that, then surely you qualify for Medicaid.

Since you say you can't afford insurance, why do you have a tax man - that usually means you have resources. And don't think if you go to jail you'll get free health care and dental work. You'll still pay for it one way or another.

If you have more than one car, you can afford insurance. If you own a boat, camper or motorcycle, you can afford insurance. If you have a computer, big screen TV, cable or satellite, smoke or drink, you can afford insurance.

Many who say they cannot or do not have insurance, choose to live that way. So, Mrs. Collins, step up to the plate and work for it like the rest of us. Your "illegal wars" and tax cuts for billionaires is ridiculous. We all enjoyed tax cuts in the Bush years and the wars were legal.

But keep your letters going, "Dream Team." You have that right and so do the rest of us. For now.
