It appears that America is rapidly evolving into a Gestapo-like mentality.

The so call "expert witness" gets to decide whether or not our parenting method allows us to continue to raise our own children. Teachers are not allowed to touch their students for fear of reprisals. It is very easy for unscrupulous persons to set someone up for statutory rape charges which undermines the validity of actual rape charges. Employees are encouraged by the IRS to turn in their bosses which can and does lead to specious charges which only serve to line the Lawyers pockets. We are so rigidly adhering to politically correct adherence to the letter of the law that we have almost destroyed the spirit of the law. Doctors and nurses no longer get to practice medical and nursing arts. They dare not go outside of written protocols even when they know it is in the patients best interests to do so. What has happened to us? I'd like to lay a wreath at the tomb of Common Sense. It has obviously died in America. bybee

1984

Amen, bybee. Amen.

Political correctness is exactly what George Orwell was warning us about in 1984.

I have never forgotten the message in that book. It horrified me. The power of government has become incredibly dangerous. C. S. Lewis, in his science fiction trilogy also tried to warn us about the dangers inherent in demagogery and organizations which seek to push their agenda regardless the cost.

:yawn:

Nah, it's the Catholics. Seriously!

Rather than actually do something productive with their time, some of them *cough cough Chys* prefer to play cheerleader for the Republican party.

BTW, have you figured out yet why after 8 years in office under your guy that AOD still exists?

I don't know a whole lot of Catholics who vote Republican, ironically enough.

Not that it would matter. They're all in bed together.

The only thing that can help hinder the corruption is term limits for all offices.

I agree, and as Americans, that should be OUR goal. Doing things for our country that allows our freedoms and still protects the innocent.

My dear fellow, at times you are very didactic! Your motivation is good. However, you are preaching to the choir! Really! I know my responsibilities to my community as a citizen and as a christian. am involved to the best of my abilities. I've got my dots connected! You can call me Dotty! if you want. We are pretty much on the same page, except for women's issues. But then, a man cannot possibly understand how devastating some of these issues are to women, except from his heart. peace, bybee

Our own laziness and success caught up to us. We're a nation of overweight, half-literate, ignorant buffoons. Frankly, we deserve everything we get.

well I am sorry that I missed the part where you held the Democratic Party responsible for most of what you mentioned

No, we are a nation of well-educated, hard-working people. The people you're describing are the ones who somehow manage to get elected to office.
