A recent Gallup study has found that nearly half of Americans view the US government as the greatest threat to life and liberty, a three percent increase from last year. Is America becoming more libertarian?

This sounds pessimistic but, only half?

The other half was too afraid to admit it.

Government is like a good father, loving, but beats you if you disobey. And sometimes takes beating you a bit too far.

But he loves you. And that's what matters.

If they fear government, why do they keep electing tyrants to rule them?

But he loves you.

Unless he is drunk, which is most of the time :rolleyes:

Naw, the other half was camped out at the SS office waiting for their check so they could get their Obama Phone minutes, free health care card, and cashola so they can run down to the local drug dealer for H and meth.

I wish Penny had been right, about Ron never retiring. She was his ex-COS and quit when he hired Benton.

I think what did it was the re-redistricting. :(

He's still doing really good work. Maybe he's more effective this way.

Just isn't getting the media attention any more. :(

He still gets on the news occasionally. Not as much as I would like but he's still around.
