Skeptic,

Thanks for the reading references.

"Being PC is funny, when carried to an extreme. But then, so is being religiously correct. The danger is to mandate either. And the problem is to come up with acceptable definitions"

True and I advocate neither, but moral codes can only come from religion or natural law.

"Super IQ?"

I was referring to the 'tudes of the aforementioned smart@$$ liberals. Common sense doesn't seem to travel with that kind of ego.

"Ethical freedom"

My PC description of CORRUPT!

I am of the belief that it is a true quote. Obviously not reported by Comrade Dan.

"I seem to remember taxes in the US as a percent of GNP are the lowest in the industrialized world"

Federal income taxes perhaps, but when you factor in all federal payroll, state and local, plus the hidden taxes paid by consumers (corporate taxes included in the retail price of.....everything) tolls and fuel tax for transportation of goods, it gets pretty offensive (50+%)

"FL"

How long has FL been a republican state vs the developments you described? Doesn't it take a few years to pull off all this damage?

"power corrupts"

You are correct sir.

All the DC republicans from here are now RINOs.
