Truth is somewhere

I stopped at the Democratic table at the Butler Farm Show on Aug. 10 to discuss why they were so ardently Democratic. They were convinced that any counterpoint I offered was a lie.

What bothered me was they were sincere and good-hearted but hated Glenn Beck, Jim Quinn (of The War Room with Quinn and Rose), Sean Hannity, etc.

On Aug. 16, I encountered a group at Diamond Park that called itself Catholics United for Life. Being a Catholic, I was surprised at group members' attitude. They insisted that health care reform would save us money and improve our care. They labeled a lie that the government promotes a socialist agenda, and those conservative radio and television personalities lied with the sole purpose of dividing America and gaining profit.

Then they left to continue their well-financed, cross-country tour to blast opposite opinions.

It seems to me that the truth is out there somewhere, but we will find it only on our knees.

Oh, didn't someone named Glenn Beck suggest that?
