Northwest Woodsman: I firmly believe that Marxist democrats really determined to destroy this country. There is absolutely no other answer. I am saddled with several step kids who are f@#$ing democrats two of whom actually were employed by Harry Reid. I just told my friends that they were prostitutes in D.C as that saved me embarrassment as prostitution would be a much more honorable profession. I find it really difficult to be civil to them knowing their political alignments even though we never discuss politics. Going to visit them over thanksgiving holiday and I dread it!
I feel that today's youth are very immuture. Bring back the draft for both male and female and see how our society changes for the better. I am suggesting that our Government teach respect, responsibility etc. Yes, that is correct. Only because our parenting has failed. We are free today to be disrespectful and to do as we please without question and that is do the young men and women who made it do. It is a shame to see how entitled young people are today. I have a granddaughter who feels entitled. Her Mother has a strong work ethic such as myself and my husband - where did we go wrong?
Wish they all could have been camped on the lawns of Hillary, Obama, and Pelosi.
