I don't agree lots of people's politics, but I won't use name-calling or denigrate something basic like the word Republican in order to do that. I'll actually use my mind.

Evenin', Torog. Now I know you feel strongly about our country and its values and patriotism and everything. But one of the things that occurred to me as I read your statements about it being liberalism that's ruined our patriotic-minded youth is that I've always found, as a citizen, as a parent, as a former teacher, as a reporter, is that it tends to be bad parents who ruin our youth and don't instill proper values in them. They're the folks who instill values in young people. Not liberal society as a whole.
Howdy birdgirl,

I hear ya and I understand what yer sayin,yer right that most values are being instilled by the parents..the problem arises,when those parents are modern liberals in rebellion against traditional values,themselves. They have no desire to pass on what they consider to be out-dated values,they allow their children to run their lives,instead of the other way around,they treat them like little adults and introduce them to making adult decisions-when all the children should be doing..is just being children.

Now then,don't under-estimate,the impact that liberal society and media,have on our children,it's much more than you allude to..and is the reason why many real parents,restrict to some degree,the ingestion of liberal media and such.

Have a good one !
