    I found this (see link) a very depressing read. I know it would be easy to denigrate the column and the writer but there are some quite unpleasant claims in it. Tell me it's not as bad as it appears to be.

    I have to hand it to the author. He didn't miss a single solitary left wing talking point. Bravo!

    he writes well, but to say he overstated his case would be to understate mine. the country has its differences, and as he correctly points out, there are nutbars on both sides. these are scary times economically and there are always those who play on fear to advance their agenda. regardless of that, the union is in no danger of collapse.

    thanks for posting it.
