This Letter to the Editor from liberal Chad Klinger feels like manna from heaven.
Thank you, Chad!
Chad Klinger:
"In his letter “Reasons for Leaving the Republican Party” on May 12, Thomas Rutledge describes his “awakening,” after 45 years, to the realization that the “Tea Party, Paul Ryan, Ayn Rand, Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, fundamentalist Christian” party has no place for him.
I've had a rather different epiphany. Having voted for Johnson, Carter and Clinton (twice), I now find myself viewing Democrats as the party of Saul Alinsky, Frances Fox Piven, Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayres, Van Jones, ACORN, anarcho-communist Occupiers, atheists, abortionists, shameless corruption (The Chicago Way), fiscal insanity (The Sacramento Way), Big Brother (in every way Orwell imagined), racism (the anti-white Justice Department way), class envy and class warfare.
Not only does this party have no place for me, I feel that it despises me because I'm white, Catholic, and an advocate of individual freedom as underwritten by the United States Constitution. Most of all, because I believe in America — what's left of it.
I remember the days when people complained that there were no real differences between the two parties and their candidates. To be sure, whomever we elect, it's always greatly about money and power, but factoring out such human constants, there sure are differences now."

SandBox Comments: Glenwood Springs Post Independent/Your Letters "Political spending still favors the left"
It's sure a good thing that we have the Chad Klingers of the world to keep the balance.
If we didn't have such champion spit-wad hurlers, who can get their point across loud and clear in a social forum, we would be stuck forever with the opposite end of the spectrum of respected opinion columnists.
Like Mary Boland.

"Come on, Ms. Boland, if there's a rigged game in this country, it currently favors the left. So, until America turns into Greece, why doesn't Ms. Boland relax and enjoy the fruits of her labors?"

What makes, what defines a victim of a culture, a society or of a collective thought?
(A) Are they the ones, by their own free will choice not by necessity to defend or by being forced to defend; who jump right into a public spotlight alongside their accusers and the perps that are trying to hurt them in some way?
(B) Are they the ones, by their own free will choice, who launched themselves into positions strong enough and powerful enough to influence society?
How about 'none of the above'?
The real victims are all the folks that are not either one of the above and who live their lives privately and in their own small social circles. Who by that very need for right to quality of life through privacy, fall prey to a group such as those named in this article that have built up very powerful collective thought.
Or fall prey to an individual encouraging the imbalance of such thought as Chad Klinger of Carbondale.
Or fall prey to the affects of thoughts such as those of Brooks A. Mick, MD of Yorktown, VA.
The one unrelenting fact in all of it is that the material base of day-to-day solvency is dependent on all of us.
A point made by the authors of 'Slums of Aspen' and missed by most readers; that seems to have fallen prey to the power of collective thought.
