Mr. Alviano, you have made Mr. Doty's letter look like it's the more sensible of the two; in fact, your letter is hilarious to most reasonable Americans. First, the conservative Republicans only want our government to follow the constitution which the liberal Democrats want to ignore or re-write to their wishes. Social Security, Medicare and unemployment payments are programs that we have taken out of our paychecks; they are not giveaways. ...more

Thank you Mr. Doty, I've not read a funnier letter to the editor in quite some time. Let's first deal with your idea of liberalism equals socialism.

In the late 1800s, Karl Marx came up with "The Ten Planks of the Communist Manifesto." In the late 1930s, Sinclair Lewis wrote a book titled "It Can't Happen Here." Sorry Mr. Lewis, it is happening here and quickly, as evidenced by the House vote on socialized medicine and the relentless daily attacks on our personal freedom and capitalism. If "Obamacare" goes through, our beloved government will own or control 48 percent of the private industry. Next up, cap and trade. This bill is in response to the world's biggest hoax ever perpetuated, global warming. For instance, when we exhale we emit CO2. Plants need C02 to live and supply oxygen to all breathing creatures. If we eliminate the C02 there will be no plants for the animals to feed on and no air for us to breathe. What are we going to eat? Nothing, we all die! Politicians don't care, they just crave power. Big Brother will then have total control over us. But on the bright side, politicians will also die from lack of hot air to spew. ...more
