After reading Frances Earl's recent column this past Thursday, I have come to the conclusion that she likes to make things up. Things like: Republicans coming out in droves for Sen. Barack Obama. Well, the only Republicans I know who are backing Obama are the spineless Washington insiders who are more interested in being invited to Washington parties and being liked by the media. I am talking about the so-called: "Blue Blood Republicans" or moderate Republicans. But the true conservative Republicans would in no way vote for someone like Obama whose new age socialism would truly put this country into debt if all of his programs were in put into play.
And while we're on the subject of name-dropping, Earl brings up Warren Buffet. Here is a guy who wants the regular folks to pay more taxes but who has done everything possible not to pay any more taxes in the United States. Here is the same Buffet along with Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, who believe that there are not enough foreign workers in the United States and who see no problem with outsourcing of jobs.
I am still amazed by how Earl sees no problem with ACORN, an organization that is being investigated by as many as 15 states. Let's not forget Bill Ayers while we're at it. In her own words, she says that Ayers is a respected professor that G. Gordon Liddy is dangerous. Of course, the difference is that Liddy never bombed the Pentagon and loves his country.
Earl is either the most political naive person I ever read or she is so blinded by her devotion to the Democratic Party that if Jack the Ripper or Josef Stalin were Democrats running for office, she would vote for them.
