The conservative movement hasn't had a victory since President Reagan left office.

A GOP victory, regardless of its size, does NOTHING for conservatives.

Since January 20, 1989 there has been a steady advancement of liberalism. The GOP and Democrats have, at times, focused on different facets of the liberal agenda, but there has been no discernible difference in the outcome. We currently have a two-party system with nearly identical agendas, they are only fighting over who gets to take credit.

The Left, and the Washington Establishment, was shocked, horrified, caught totally off-guard by Reagan’s Election.

They have since developed a robust immune response. They will make darned sure that THAT won’t happen again.

Hence the rigged GOP primary system, the media destruction of people like Sarah Palin, etc. etc.

First obamacare and now homosexual marriage.

The long term trend is not good. Millennials have grown up with the collectivist, truth is relative, nonsense from birth. They have never seen a rapidly expanding economy where opportunities abound. Instead they've grown up in an environment where the baseline in decision making and money management is the government.

People who believe Scripture is the inspired word of God are a minority and following this ruling it won't be long before the tax exempt status of churches that refuse to marry homosexuals will be denied. I'm sure that when the left finds that God fearing Christians still refuse to comply the trials for "hate crimes" and forced "re-education" will begin.

I know the fiscal conservatives could care less, but what they fail to see is the social issues have driven financial issues. When we started aborting babies our birth rates began to decline. As this happened a magnet for illegal foreign labor was created. Now we have 30 million illegals here who don't want to assimilate, but would rather have a socialist govt take from the productive and give to them.
