A Collectivist’s Pathetic Moral Confusion
Watch this and be very sad that someone as confused as Rep. Kathy Castor could get elected to Congress. Here’s a quote from the end of her speech:
You might not have agreed to Medicare, you might not have agreed to giving our veterans benefits, you might not have agreed to [unintelligible], you might not have agreed to Social Security, but these are the foundational moral principles of our great country.
–U.S. Congresswoman Kathy Castor supporting healthcare collectivization at a “town hall” meeting
There you have it: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are out. The nanny collectivist state is in.
I take heart that the protesters in the back of the room shouted her down. I also find it helpful that the planted union tough in the front of the room (the one faithfully applauding his comrade’s every spew) wore a t-shirt identifying himself as such.
Hi Daddy,
It’s Molly and Susanna. She (Susanna) wanted to see your blog, so I said ok. Here is something from Susanna:
I love you daddy.
We love you!

Nathan! Good to hear from you again! God bless you, man!
Heh, I’m working on teaching the girls the proper use of the comments section.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen you post; glad to see you back at it.
I’ve been most dormant at NCM, but I’m contributing fairly frequently at The American Conservative‘s Post Right.
Good work on teaching the girls that!

Nathan, I spent a goodly chunk of time last night reading your AmConMag blog post about Mark Levin, and your defense of it in the comments section. I don’t follow Mark Levin, nor have I read his book(s?), so I refrained from commenting. I commend your civility and restraint in the face of some pretty nasty trolls out there.
