Standing on personal �principle� means one put self above the greater good.
I respect principle, I understand principle but the mess we are in can�t be solved by principle.
How foolish is it to believe the Country can turn Conservative with one election. The insidious damage that has been inflicted to America has literally been afflicted by the death of a thousand cuts.
50 years of Liberalism has changed America. I�m not ready to give up, nor should anyone here, but I am acutely aware that the numbers are heavily against us.
So, where do we start? Some States are hanging on better than others but the weight of the Federal Government will eventually render all 50 of them impotent.
So fix the Federal Government first.
Obama fully intends on running amok his last two years. Immigration will be rammed down our throats and many more of his leftist agendas.
A Republican controlled Senate can stand in the way. If your Candidate is Conservative that�s perfect. If not then one must put aside principle for the good of all and still pull that Republican lever. The Democrats simply must lose control of the Senate.
A Republican controlled Senate can stop Obama from putting Socialists on the Federal and the Supreme Court. Again, for the good of all pull that Republican lever. The Democrats simply must lose control of the Senate.
The Republican Party, what�s left of it, did not become eviscerated because they failed to nominate Conservatives. They were done in by Liberal Schools, done in by Liberal media, done in by immigrants, done in by Public Employees and a whole host of those who prosper by taking away what the Taxpayers have earned.
So here we are today, badly outnumbered. A Conservative could be nominated but it would be simply one more soldier at the Alamo.
It took 50 years to get here and it quite frankly may well take 50 years to get out of this mess....if at all.
But it will need to be done as slowly and as insidious as the liberals have done it to us. But we need to start and we need to hold our nose once in awhile.
Sucks that it is that way but reality sucks.
Principles may need to be bent a bit. The Country can�t continue to back slide. Get rid of the Democrats with Moderate Republicans then get rid of Moderate Republicans with Conservative ones. If that can be pulled of there is no doubt that I and many others here will be long dead. But to stand on principle and allow a Socialist to be elected over a Moderate Republican is, as I said, akin to suicide. It only makes things worse.
I hope all of you stop for a minute and realize just how close this Country is to going over the edge to Socialism....
We can�t let that happen.
