Cowboy Philosophy

Sir:

I want to thank you for putting "Old Ty" and me out there for everybody to see; and my deep gratitude for the thought and research that went into the article.

I say this in spite of your cursory, patronizing attitude concerning the political beliefs I espouse. THE SILENT MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE IN OUR NATION ARE BEGINNING TO VOTE THE WAY I THINK and to resent the "care from cradle to grave" philosophy which your articulate liberal-left minority are smugly taking for granted as a way to political power in this country.
