My New Hero; Larry Johnson? Read his Letter in Praise of George Will's Analysis of Wisconsin's Recall Elections..

From the Columbian, WA: 

Thanks to George Will’s insightful examination of what ails America, I have finally come to see the true light.

Will’s Aug. 28 column on the lessons learned after the Wisconsin recall elections indicts labor unions, trial lawyers, and ivory towers as the greatest obstacles in America’s exceptional march toward greatness.

Though retired, I am now considering renouncing my pension and medical benefits, and throwing myself on the tender mercies of compassionate conservatism. Likewise, should I find myself crossways with monolithic corporatism, I’m certain that my plea for their ear and appeal to their sense of justice will prevail.

And as for higher education, well, apparently, as denigrated by Will, that just makes you dumber, less able to distinguish how you as an enterprising American individual can exert your personal power to effect changes on a very uneven playing field.

And as Will so ably reeled off extemporaneously on “Meet the Press” that same Sunday, every one of our current maladies, politically, socially, economically, is directly attributable to Barack Obama.

And I thank Will for his thoughtful revelations.
Larry Johnson
