What Happening Here?

Krugman: What's Going On?
"Democratic societies have a hard time dealing with extremists in their midst. The desire to show respect for other people's beliefs all too easily turns into denial: nobody wants to talk about the threat posed by those whose beliefs include contempt for democracy itself.....Before he saw the polls, Tom DeLay declared that "one thing that God has brought to us is Terri Schiavo, to help elevate the visibility of what is going on in America." Now he and his party, shocked by the public's negative reaction to their meddling, want to move on. But we shouldn't let them. The Schiavo case is, indeed, a chance to highlight what's going on in America."

Hi John. I do hope people are becoming aware of the manic fundamentalists in our society. It's a very tense time down here and the action is all going on a little too close for me. There are religious maniacs on the loose; children moved out of their schools; traffic rerouted; hospice workers quitting, etc. Very stressful and very little truth being told by the Pro-Life crowd. Whew!
