You may find me in Webster’s with a close look at politically liberal. If the tea partiers would use the dictionary they could not only improve themselves, they could use correct spelling in their signs. Conservative is too nice of a word to use on some. I took an oath to the Constitution over 50 years ago and there is no reason for the end of my oath.
A problem liberals have is that some people do not care enough for their own and their families’ health and economics to read and understand any of the health care bills. That does not stop them from spreading many myths.
As a group, Republicans are making up many myths. They do not stop with myths about health care and President Barack Obama. Myths are most harmful to our government. Factcheck and other good sources call them myths. There is another word, but myth is something foolish people often want to believe over the truth. I have put a lot of time looking and no Republican has come close to an accurate description of the bills for health care.
For sure, Democrats did not get the health care message out. Sen. Bayh was no help getting the message out.
I have had Medicare for over 20 years and it is one of the best government programs. In my opinion, Medicare for all would be the best. Medicare is not free to the patient but very reasonable. Doctors would be able to doctor and this would greatly reduce the doctors’ administrative problems.

Letter: Consumer-driven economy will pay off debt
To save America some money — by acclimation of course — let’s not have a presidential election in 2012. We already have a good president who will do his best to kill all Republican bills (DOA) and, consequently, create more good-paying jobs in the $30 per hour range.

Letter: Gingrich cashes in on political amnesia
Rasmussen says that Romney has flattened nationally. Why?
Two reasons seem to tell the tale. Gingrich has shown that he will fight, and Romney is a Mormon, believed to be a “cult” by a majority of evangelicals. -
Letter: Hiring Winkler not wise spending
As a taxpayer I want to know that my taxes are being spent wisely. Hiring Greg Winkler at a salary of $126,000 is not wise spending.

Letter: Bill of Rights being nullified by new law
President Obama signed the National Defense Authorization Act on New Year’s Eve. I doubt many Americans noticed its implications because they do not yet comprehend the big picture. This law, coupled with the Patriot Act, is paving the way for America’s direction toward tyranny.

Letter: Economy putting people in the gutters
We are now getting the results of putting people in the gutters. We need to take a second look at our government and its policies. It’s not working.

Letter: Blame the voters for our Congress
Why is insider trading legal for Congress and illegal for the rest of us? They make and enact laws for all of us, but then exempt members of Congress. Somehow this doesn’t seem to pass the smell test.

Letter: Smith’s firings appear vindictive
Anderson is a city of negative publicity and actions. Why else is Sears leaving? Can we stand four years of vindictive actions and negative reporting?
