• These guys [liberals] will never tire of spending our money and will never hold themselves accountable for their boondoggles.

No amount of empirical evidence will shake their socialist theology.

• Because adoption meets the needs of children so successfully, and because there have long been waiting lists of couples hoping to adopt babies and children, it would seem that the solution for abused or neglected kids was obvious. But not to the do-gooders. To remove a child from an abusive parent, sever the parent's parental rights, and permit the child to be adopted by a couple who would give the child a loving home began to seem too 'judgmental.'

And with more and more success I would just say yes. And keep on taking more work on - which took its toll.
