No question that I write some pretty "pointed and stark" commentaries. I am also thankful for all the millions of readers worldwide.  For certain, we are all in this thing together. 

For this column, I'm sharing your responses so that you all know that you're in the vanguard of the very best people.  People with morals, scruples, principles and courage.

This letter arrived from a reader in New Zealand: (all with permission to publish)

Hello Frosty,

I purposely read your contributions every time I see you in HIGHLIGHTS email. I am so in tune with your sentiments - TOTALLY !!

I have been meaning to reply to your email of 3rd May and I was especially moved to read  about your wife and her Alzheimer's Diagnosis. Since that time I pray to GOD every night to give her a healing that she may be WHOLE again.

I just wanted to tell you that I share your sense of confusion - How can we be surrounded by so many STUPID people, be they American Presidents, New Zealand Prime Ministers, Congressmen, Senators, Parliamentarians or work colleagues and neighbors that just DON'T see what is REALLY going on ?? It would appear those in power just want to purposely crash the System and the rest don't want to rock the boat !! The rest that is EXCEPT people like us that are not scared to call out the STUPIDITY that we CONSTANTLY witness. I cannot understand what would make people so compliant - Is it they are so stupid or just deliberately evil? 

Whilst you are shocked at what is happening in your country (America) we also are equally shocked and dumbfounded at what is happening in ours (New Zealand).

I feel the only solution is to gather like-minded people and go live in a Siberian Community somewhere remote where we can watch the implosion at a safe distance with popcorn !!

I just needed to reach out and let you know that you are not alone - Take Care and May God Bless You, Your Family and Friends

Thanks and Kind Regards,
B.F.

This letter addressed the "Flavors of Stupidity":

Hello Frosty.

This was a great article and I have passed it along to everyone on my list. It's your article in full with your email at the end just as it is written. No changes at all.  Thank You so very much. However the trouble is that everyone I send it to will be in total agreeance with it because the Stupid ones are not on my list. Granted, your article is out there such as it needs to be but I fear that there are just to many stupid ones out there with their heads in their TV sets and for that they may as well have their heads up their ass. Nothing but lies coming from the so called news they will get there. Where would we be without people like you and the News With Views.   I love it.   Thanks again for a GREAT article.  Sincerely,  DGW
