She taught me something that I have since then seen to be correct. I read a lot and do not limit myself to newspapers and magazines and periodicals that only reflect my views.
The people who own and run this place are Republican. And in fact according to the statistics, much more than half of the people who live here are too.
I think this needs to be said often so people are not surprised or angry over that fact if they are considering this place to be their home.

Mrs Belcher was right but we have moved from political bias to out right publishing of misinformation...and no information is better than misinformation
