Thursday, July 22, 2010  Another country heard from . . .  "The
American people are turned off by all the agitation to violence.
It isn't part of our heritage." -- "Steve of IL."  The Sons of
Liberty sack the Boston mansion of the Royal Governor of
Massachusetts.  So, my name came up in the comments to this
story.  "Steve of IL" wrote:  That's it guys. Keep blaming
unions and government for all the problems when in fact both
those institutions have been in retreat for thirty years.  I
never understood people so in love with their own ideas that
they lack a basic curiosity about other sources of information
and views. In my opinion, it is the height of ignorance to sit
in front of FOX all day and then listen to Rush Limbaugh or some
other hater/name caller and think one is "educating" ones self.
I have always availed myself of conservative ideas, albeit those
expressed intelligently by scholars who have produced respected,
peer reviewed research. I have as much contempt for sloppy,
inaccurate left wing smear
