Defend Your Post, Conservatives!

Well aren't you glad the sun continues to rise even when the stock market is tanking? It's God's reminder that He is in control and none of this worries Him. Good to know! In the meantime, though, we are living in this world and need to work to make some sense of it.

So, let's tackle a recurring theme emerging from the democrats when they discuss the republicans in the house and senate. It is this: in the debate over our government's deliberate course toward socialism, republicans are not being "constructive" because they vote against the democrats. Mr. Raul Emanuel was interviewed, shown on CNN last night, stating that the republicans' views and contributions will be taken under advisement when the republicans offer alternatives (which they have, every time) and when they are "constructive". This is amusing to me, that "constructive" in Obama-lingo apparently means total submission and abandonment of conservative principles! No, Obama and Emanuel, what you are looking for is total acquiesence and silence from your opposition. You'd probably like the conservatives to apologize too, for daring to not join in the Obama worship!

Whether conservatives can turn the political tide remains to be seen. However, there are now very few Americans who can continue to be disinterested bystanders in what is going on in politics. Too many political, financial and societal institutions are experiencing a downward freefall; the situation has caught the attention of even the most lackadaiscal and intellectually inert individuals. Now is an opportunity to show those people the ideas of the conservative model of government even if on a one-to-one basis. I think that people are feeling like they are not getting the whole story from the mainstream media (because they're not).

The liberals have been very successful in pigeonholing republicans/conservatives as old gray haired people who are out of touch with the younger generations of Americans. It's time for us to dismantle this falsehood! Get started, people. Start talking. Defend your position, because it is the right one.
