Letters to the editor for Saturday, Sept. 19, 2015

You can’t make this stuff up

I have been reading the Nevada Appeal’s letters to the editor section for 15 years and it never ceases to amaze me that basically the same liberal/progressives write in espousing their emotional diatribe as being factually correct when it is only their emotionally uninformed opinion. Mr. Van Alfen’s letter is a perfect case in point.

Eighty percent of the vote in 2014 was against a margins tax. Based on Mr. Van Alfen’s “facts,” all of those voters were “ignorant, stupid or both.” Really? No totally informed liberal/progressive Democrat voted against this tax? Of course not. It could only be the conservative “wack jobs!” How else would he rationalize his opinion?

A perfect example of the liberal thought process ... this is how I “feel,” so these are the facts.

If you ask a liberal what the difference is between conservatives and liberals, the answer is very simple. Liberals care about other people, and conservatives do not.

You cannot make this stuff up!
