I'm not sure we can. Do we have a megaphone to do so? No.

People like Anderson Cooper, Chris Matthews and Oprah Winfrey, to name just a few, have all the megaphones.

George Soros creates and richly finance organizations that can bend the ears of Capitol Hill potentates.

The Hollyweird Left produces propaganda to ensure the low information voters (LIV) know just how evil conservatives are. They use their billions of $, along with the Technology Kings (Zuckermann, Bezos, Ted Turner, etc.) to promote and keep democrats in power.

Science calls us deniers because we want more proof that we should just wreck the economy and ruin the lives of millions of people over a “threat” that's natural and has been present on Earth for millions of years.

Academia indoctrinates our youth from 5 years old to 22 on how rotten and awful the rich, America, and Christianity is.

I just don't have much hope. I can't understand why we (meaning our political philosophy) seems to have no power. Four years ago, our outrage grew to the point of boil-over and the TEA Party was born. We fought back, in protest and town hall.

The answer from the Left was easy. They got Anderson Cooper and his megaphone to call us “Teabaggers”. Congressman Elijah Cummings said protesters spit on him and called him the N-Word when he and Nancy's minions took their power walk with giant gavel to rub our faces in it. They used ALL the power the megaphones had, media and Hollyweird, to attack, denigrate and make a laughing stock out of the TEA party and it worked.

Now, right before our eyes, we see the megaphones ignoring the murders in Benghazi and the shameful, lying Susan Rice going on ALL the Sunday shows and not telling the American people the truth and they don't mind.

We see the IRS, NSA, FBI and other federal agencies breaking the law for political gain and just whatever else (reasons and the depth of it we can only just speculate on) that would make Richard Nixon blush and the megaphones just yawn and the LIV gets a sad, young boy named Trayvon to take their minds off things.

I have no answer. We could fight back, but we need money, and lots of it. We need our own megaphones--Rush, etc. are not enough.

We need to force the megaphones to report on us. Things like Rand Paul's "filibuster" should be weekly occurrences, but it's as if our side doesn't care.

Our side! Is it?

I have to conclude if they're not against the Left, they are... For them?!

The Left let two from "our" side have a megaphone, McCain and Graham, because they can always be depended on to eat their own. Whackobirds, anyone?

Is Boehner and his leadership so afraid of the megaphones that they won't fight, or are they secretly in agreement with the Left on things?

There's so much more and I am outraged beyond belief but I have no answer. Men much more powerful than me refuse to take a stand--how can I?

To: Alas Babylon!

What you say is very disheartening, but it’s also very true.

I do believe, however, that there is a deep disgust and hatred of political correctness in this country, and a disconnect between the views of most Americans and the way those views are marginalized. For example, most Americans oppose racial preferences, and oppose increasing legal immigration into this country. Yet the various organs of the Left will call anyone championing such views racist (or at least strongly imply it). When they do this, they are by extension calling most Americans racist, and xenophobic, and anti-immigrant, an so on. I don’t think most Americans appreciate this, but they have very few standing up for them.

If the right person came along, I think they could tap into that justified anger and frustration, and turn the Left’s advantages against them.

Or maybe not. I don’t know. It is increasingly depressing that the Republican party is increasingly worthless on so many of these issue.
