So sad, Paul, & John too. Hang in there. God bless.

You got that right Darren. Paul, my thoughts are with you too: I face a
similar situation in that my daughter is back in hospital with rampant
cancer spreading throughout her body.

There are times when subjects like politics (and photography) suddenly seem
don't seem very important (at all) and this is one of those times. With you
and yours in spirit, Paul ... though that feels so inadequate at this time.

Love you too, Frank. The post wasn’t directed at you. It wasn’t
directed at anyone, just letting off steam. Started my wife on hospice
care today.
It’s been a rough week, and I’m angry with the world.

I love you, Paul! I really do. :-)
I'm not going to respond to the substantive parts of either of your
posts. I will say that your first post hardly inflamed me or even
got me warmed up. I did smile as I read it...
I'm hardly a "liberal" so whatever conclusions you've reached as to
what liberalism is, amount to little more than a passing interest to me.
Cheers,
frank

No need to gush, Stanley. Frank’s comment is a clever turn of words
but meaningless, in that I was not debating anything or offering
any kind of argument. I merely made an observation, based on my
experience, as others have done in this thread. Of course, my words
inflamed all the lefties, but that was expected. No straw men here,
other than Frank’s diversion.

Interesting how political terminology can vary between countries.
Here 'Liberal' means the absolute opposite to the definition
of
the term
in North America. Our 'Liberals' are the conservatives; Labor
(no
'u")
are the (somewhat) leftish group.
What are called liberals everywhere else assumes that a minimum
of
government is sufficient to insure liberty.
And U.S. Liberalism dictates that government should be involved

What are called liberals in the US assumes that sometimes
something more is required, that simply “leaving people alone”
doesn’t necessarily guarantee their freedom. Totally private
healthcare vs. the assumption that no one—children of poor parents,
e.g.—should be denied healthcare because they can’t pay for it. At
least as good a sense of “liberal” as the other use is an imperfect
sense.
