It's obvious to me after observing the behavior of people
at the town hall meetings that mental health care should be a part of the health care bill wending its way through congress. Without a doubt!

1. Hear Hear, Ma'am!
By this point, 'conservatism' really ought to be listed as a syndrome in the diagnostic manuals....

2. Can't cure stupid
You can fund education and give people facts, but people will still refuse to think.

takes mental health professionals to do it.

Anything out of the ordinary ... in fact, those who can objectively look at the ant colony and identify the hows and whys behind its predominant ideologies and trends is far more likely to be relegated as weird, off base, way out there, wingnut, etc.

The sane ones in the asylum are always considered crazy by the rest.
