So you think They don’t?

The title expresses what I would have liked to say. Scene: doctor’s office. Personae: me and an apparently married couple arguing while sitting across the room from from each other. He holds up a copy of Time magazine (see below)and says “See this?” Pregnant pause. “Libruls.”

I expect they were good church-going Christians.
But I kept quiet, thinking that the doctor’s casual comment about my being less critical might just get reinforced in a tiresome way. And I knew that what the speaker meant is that the liberals are hijacking the national agenda, etc, etc. And that’s a fruitless argument to have here in Houston, Texas. Sigh.

For what the national badly needs to include, see the post two down from this one.
