Extreme right veering away from American values
05/08/05
The United States lately has moved away from some valued American principles such as: support for the common good, international cooperation, some willingness to compromise, belief in a better future, fairness for the minority and family matters left to family without government interference. Recently, however, some encouraging signs renew this New Deal liberal's hope. In early March, Former three-term Sen. John Danforth [R-MO] ... wrote an essay ... in which he bemoaned the takeover of the Republican Party. ... Then, I read an speech delivered April 6 in Washington by Texas Republican/Libertarian Rep. Ron Paul. It was a devastating attack on the Bush administration's Iraq War." [editor's note: How nice that a "New deal liberal" can appreciate a libertarian POV; if only the alleged GOPers could see as straight! - SAT]
