Jillian: A very lucid and helpful report on the twisted mechanics of this legialataive issue. You perform a noble service by explaining it as you have. We hope and pray this onerous abortion funding will be flushed. Thank you!

Thanks for a refreshing -- and encouraging -- view of the runaway government we see today. Americans are going to be dramatically deflated when they see what they have wrought, and bought. It will take many years to turn this around, but I hope and trust the truth of it will be written in words and facts that allow no revisionist history to dim the memory. Good job. Verne Strickland, Wilmington, NC.

Michelle: Always enjoy and appreciate your incisive wit and verbal passion. You are skewering the patented Obama duplicity, and performing a great service to truth-loving Americans. This is just one more example of the warped sense of honor that seems to infect this whole family (the kids and dog excluded.) You're doing noble work. God bless you.

MR. GERSON: GREAT JOB. I LIKE YOUR PUNCHY, MATTER-OF-FACT WRITING STYLE. AND YOU REALLY CUT TO THE CHASE. HAS OUR MAN IN WASHINGTON REALLY TAKEN US FOR A RIDE? YOU SEEM CONVINCED HE HAS. AND YOU KNOW WHAT? I'M ON BOARD. I DO HAVE ONE CONSOLATION. I DIDN'T VOTE FOR THIS TWO-FACED BOZO. ASIDE FROM THAT, I'M PUNK'D. WHEN DOES 2012 GET HERE? LOOK, KEEP THE HEAT ON. REALLY ENJOY YOUR COLUMN. AND I'LL BE LOOKING FOR YOU IN TOWNHALL, THE POST AND NEWSWEEK. THANKS, VERNE STRICKLAND.

Mr. Gerson: I have not read you before,and that's my loss. Your column on the spent honeymoon of Baroque Obummer was straightforward, revealing and inspiring. I assure you I will be following your work on Townhall and Newsweek, although I will probably have a seat in the end zone. Anyway, thank you so much for your commentary. We need this kind of reasoned, conservative repartee. The president's record post-inauguration is nothing short of scary. Keep the spotlight on him, okay? Verne Strickland, Wilmington, NC.

DEAR MICHELLE: THANKS FOR A CONCISE, POTENT ARTICLE ON THE PANIC THAT OUR TEA-PARTY PATRIOTS ARE SETTING OFF IN THE LEFT-WING WORLD. THEY ARE NOT VERY GOOD AT TAKING WHAT THEY DISH OUT. AND ALREADY THE LIBERAL PRESS IS ATTACHING DESTRUCTIVE ADJECTIVES TO OUR PROTESTORS, WHO ARE AVERAGE AMERICANS VOICING CONCERNS, NOT RADICAL IDIOTS WHO ARE PROFESSIONAL COMPLAINERS. NICE JOB. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! VERNE STRICKLAND, WILMINGTON, NC
