Re Bill Price's followup:

I can believe the 9 "tenets" of what gov't tries to inculcate in the young
came "boiling off the top of my [Bill Price's] head":  they sound like the
ravings of a lunatic!

Was the posting facetious, or does Mr. Price actually mean to make his
claims seriously?  Some of the "tenets" are so utterly divorced from
simple reality that they quite literally fit Richard Hofstadter's
label "the paranoid style in politics" and eerily resemble schizophrenic
delusions.  The threat of being considered insane apparently no longer
acts to inhibit political expression in this country.
