David: Why are we not allowed to see:

-the pictures or films of the WTC attacks?

-pictures of atrocities by the other side?

Sorry, but you will never convince me that the photos are not selectively edited to advance the media's anti-war agenda. If this were not so, and the media adhered to a policy of "telling it like it is" at all times, perhaps you would have a case. But with the prevalence of one-sided coverage that is designed to advance a political agenda of the press, the family's request should be honored.

The number of people who do not pay taxes is close to the number of people who do. Non tax payers are only too glad to take a free ride on the shoulders of the taxpayers.

And we now have an administration who constantly seeks more economic redistribution from the productive to the non-productive.

Liberals mostly mock Atlas Shrugged, but they ought to take a refresher course. As a small business owner who works hard to provide for his FAMILY, I can tell you many of us are at least contemplating shrugging.

Haven't posted on TH for months but this is one of the most level headed, fair and honest analysis of this situation I have seen. Cannot imagine how anyone fair minded could take serious issue with this column.

Lon,

You are twisting what Mr. Bozell said. You know, and any reader with an IQ above double digits knows you are being disingenuous, and I'm not going to waste the bandwidth to dismantle what you did.

But I will say, if conservatives seem to have "contempt for American values" as you infer, it is because the values you and your side hold dear bestow the terrorists with rights that our Navy Seals (and our other soldiers) do not have. You give every benefit of the doubt to America's enemies, monsters who have killed thousands of your countrymen; while you hold those on your side to harsh standards that you would never impose on the other side.

You bestow your self-satisfied "compassion" on vile subhumans who are...

"An idiot can see the problems! We don't need to get the Chinese Water Torchure Treatment describing problems over, and over, and over again!"

Sadly, you are way wrong. An "idiot" could have supposedly seen what the problems would be if Obama was elected when he was campaigning. But the 52% of your countrymen who elected him were either liberals who want a socialistic country or 'moderates' who were enthralled by the creases in his pants or thought that he would govern from the middle.

The first solution is getting the majority of people to realize we have a big problem, and we are a long way from there.
