Bill Webster and others like him seem to think that Rush, Herman Cain, Neal Boortz and Sean Hannity are objective sources of information.

In the current economic crisis, it is working, taxpaying citizens who are in trouble. Mr. Webster says that Congress wants to take from “achievers.”

Achievers? All of my friends work, pay taxes and take care of their families, yet many are currently in some kind of financial trouble because of the current economic meltdown.

Mr. Webster writes about people who bought houses they couldn’t afford. Well, let me tell you this. If the particular business or industry you’re in declines or disappears, you can easily find yourself in mortgage trouble even if you’ve owned your modest little home for 20 years.

It’s not just people who bought homes they couldn’t afford who are in mortgage trouble. It’s very often people whose jobs have disappeared and have been unable to find work. This economic meltdown we are experiencing is not the fault of average Joe, yet average Joe is taking the hardest hit. I see nothing wrong with a little government help for people who are in trouble through no fault of their own.

It’s particularly interesting that Mr. Webster writes of our constitution being intended for religious and moral people. I’m pretty sure that people who think like Mr. Webster would like to define religious and moral for all of us. By the way, all of the Boortz fans should look into the Boortz brand of libertarian conservation and see just how religious and moral Boortz’s views are. You shall be surprised.

I can hardly imagine how much fun it would be attending a Glen Beck viewing party with Mr. Webster and his Boortz-worshiping friends. What a thoughtful, kind and caring bunch that must be.
